HU Xuelong, SHEN Jie. Algorithm on Multiresolution Remote Image Fusion with Watershed Segmentation[J]. Journal of Image and Graphics, 2010,15(5):820. DOI: 10.11834/jig.20100517.
Confusing panchromatic image and multispectral image can obtained clearer image the maltispectral image alone. A multiresolution image fusion algorithm based on watershed segmentation and wavelet transform is proposed. Firstly
we obtain the wavelet pyramid using the orthogonal wavelet transform. Then
watershed segmentation of the approximation image is computed
and the inverse wavelet transform is used to project this original segmentation up to the higher resolutions. After joint region analyzed
the joint region segmentation map is obtained
which is further used to guide the fusion of the wavelet coefficients. Finally
the inverse transform of the fused coefficients is implemented in order to obtain the final fusion image. The experimental results indicate that the algorithm is effective for the remote sensing image fusion
which can give consideration well to the spectral quality and spatial definition.
