Investigation of TsGAN-based multimodal image fusion to augment image pre-processing abilities by Priyanka Bhatambarekar, Gayatri Phade

“…Use of diverse modality images highlights the essential limitations of single source imagery and highlights the critical role of fusion techniques in enhancing data quality and enabling more effective information extraction. An extensive range of image fusion techniques is available, across from traditional approaches such as intensity-hue-saturation (IHS), principal component analysis (PCA), discrete cosine transform (DCT), and discrete wavelet transform (DWT) to more advanced methods such as deep learning (DL) and generative adversarial networks (GANs). …”
