- Existing fuzzy logic methods for image fusion can be subjective.
- Through-the-wall radar imaging in urban environments presents unique challenges.
Purpose of the Study:
- To develop an automated probabilistic fuzzy logic-based image fusion approach.
- To improve the quality and interpretability of composite radar images.
- To enhance target detection capabilities in urban sensing applications.
Main Methods:
- Developed a probabilistic fuzzy logic framework for image fusion.
- Utilized Gaussian-Rayleigh mixture distribution for automatic membership function formation.
- Directly fused input pixel values, avoiding fuzzification and defuzzification steps.
- Applied the method to multi-view and polarimetric through-the-wall radar data.
Main Results:
- Achieved improved image contrast in fused radar images.
- Demonstrated enhanced target detection.
- Validated the approach on real-world urban sensing data.
