摘要
In this paper, a new multi-focus image fusion method based on wavelet transform is proposed. It aims to combine a set of images that are captured from the same scene but with different focuses for producing another sharper image. The image fusion process is looked as a three categories problem: detail, plain and transition. Sharpness and similarity criterion are used for distinguish the type of image. According to the type of image, we can design efficient fusion rules, which based on pixel or region. This new method provides improved subjective and objectives results compared to the previous fusion methods.
