Abstract

In this paper, a novel image fusion algorithm based on Nonsubsampled Contourlet Transform (NSCT) and image segmentation is proposed, for the application of Passive Millimeter Wave (PMMW) concealed objects detection. PMMW and visual images are fused to get a better presentation of original images, maintaining both visual background and concealed object detected in PMMW images. This algorithm combines the extraction of Region of Interest (ROI) and the NSCT based fusion. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm has better fusion performance compared with traditional methods.
