Multimodal Medical Image Fusion using Hybrid Layer Decomposition with CNN-based Feature Mapping and Structural Clustering

Multimodal medical image fusion aims to integrate multisensory medical data into a single image for better prediction of the diagnostic details. This article presents a feature-level multimodal medical image fusion with the use of a two-scale ℓ1 - ℓ0 hybrid layer decomposition scheme to maximize the structural details with the suppression of significant noise and artifacts. The proposed method use...
