Abstract
Abstract Multi-focus image fusion is a process of fusing multiple images of different focus areas into a total focus image, which has important application value. In view of the defects of the current fusion method in the detail information retention effect of the original image, a fusion architecture based on two stages is designed. In the training phase, combined with the polarized self-attention module and the DenseNet network structure, an encoder-decoder structure network is designed for image reconstruction tasks to enhance the original information retention ability of the model. In the fusion stage, combined with the encoded feature map, a fusion strategy based on edge feature map is designed for image fusion tasks to enhance the attention ability of detail information in the fusion process. Compared with 9 classical fusion algorithms, the proposed algorithm has achieved advanced fusion performance in both subjective and objective evaluations, and the fused image has better information retention effect on the original image.
