A False Color Image Fusion Method Based on KFE and DUM-PCNN in NSST Domain

The target information is not prominent in the process of night vision image fusion, color information display unnatural. A novle false color image fusion method based on the nonsubsampled shearlet transform (NSST) is proposed.Using Kirsh feature energy(KFE) and constructing the dual channel unit link memristive pulse coupled neural network (DUM-PCNN) design the new fusion scheme, completing the infrared (IR) and visible (VIS) image fusion in the NSST domain. The fused image, IR and VIS carried on the linea combination and it assiged the YUV color space, synthesis the false color image (FCI). Finally, Applied color space conversion technology to obtain the pseudo-color image. Experimental results based on different data sets show that the proposed the fusion method can obtain the prominent target information and present the similar to natural images color appearance.
