Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of image processing, in particular to an infrared polarization image fusion method for a camouflage target.
Background
The infrared imaging detection is an important means for obtaining target image information, and has wide application in various fields such as military target identification, geological exploration, map drawing, monitoring and the like. The traditional imaging technology mainly utilizes the spectrum and intensity information of target radiation, and when a target is in a hidden or disguised state, the traditional imaging technology is difficult to effectively detect and identify.
The infrared polarization imaging detection technology is a novel photoelectric imaging detection technology for realizing target detection by utilizing polarization characteristic information, and can reveal target detail characteristics, improve the contrast of a target and increase the detection distance. The polarization degree and the polarization angle image can be obtained by utilizing the polarization characteristics, and further, the details of the outline, the structure and the like of the object can be obtained. At present, the research aiming at infrared polarization image fusion mainly takes image information of polarization degree and polarization angle as main bodies and is fused with original image information to achieve the purpose of identifying a target or enhancing the target information under the conventional background. However, the research on the fusion of the infrared polarization images under the camouflage background is less, and how to extract the polarization information from the infrared polarization images of the camouflage target and perform the fusion of the images is the key of the application of the polarization technology.
