Popis: Image fusion is known as a synergetic process for merging multispectral and panchromatic images contents. So far, various methods have been developed in which the usage of the frequency domain is one of them. The frequency-based image fusion techniques are performed using high and low pass filters. So, the determination of the sizes of these filters would be a challenge. In this paper, a weighted index is proposed to determine the sizes and shapes of the low and high filters in fusion of the panchromatic and multispectral images. In the proposed method, the weights of the spectral and spatial indicators are independently estimated for each image. So, the effects of the differentiation of the image contents and different range of the indicators are properly adjusted to reach the optimum filtering. The comparison of the best results obtained from the proposed method with the other well-known fusion methods, in the used datasets, was indicated an average improvement of 58% in RMSEs.
