Multifocus image fusion based on compressive sensing for visual sensor networks

In this paper, we present a new and efficient multifocus image fusion based on compressive sensing in visual sensor networks. The energy consumption and bandwidth are mean factor in visual sensor networks which determine the lifetime of sensors. Thus, for reducing the energy consumption and bandwidth in transmission; the proposed method uses compressive sensing for fusion of multifocus images. The experimental results show that the proposed approach can achieve a higher fusion quality than some exiting fusion schemes.
