Abstract
A novel pixel-level image fusion scheme was presented based on multiscale d ecomposition. First, the wavelet transform is used to perform a multiscale decomposition of each image. Then the wavelet coefficients of fused image a re constructed using multiple operators according to different fusion rules . This approach is successfully used to fuse the infrared and visible light images. The experimental results show that the fusion scheme is effective and the fused images are more suitable for human visual or machine percepti on.
