Analytical Hierarchical Process Based System for Image Fusion

Abstract

Image fusion has been rapidly gaining importance in application areas such as medical imaging, remote sensing, robotics, navigation and the military. This has led to emergence of several algorithms for image fusion for generating more precise images. This paper presents a novel approach of selecting best image fusion algorithm for a given scenario using Analytical Hierarchical Process (AHP) involving eigen vectors. Evaluations of the proposed approach indicate higher quality of fused images.
