RESUMO
A new framelet-based random walks (RWs) method is presented for synthetic aperture radar (SAR) image fusion, including SAR-visible images, SAR-infrared images, and Multi-band SAR images. In this method, we build a novel RWs model based on the statistical characteristics of framelet coefficients to fuse the high-frequency and low-frequency coefficients. This model converts the fusion problem to estimate the probability of each framelet coefficient being assigned each input image. Experimental results show that the proposed approach improves the contrast while preserves the edges simultaneously, and outperforms many traditional and state-of-the-art fusion techniques in both qualitative and quantitative analysis.
