Abstract:
1. A non-transitory program storage device, readable by a processor and comprising instructions stored thereon to cause the processor to: obtain first and second images, each image having a plurality of pixels, each pixel in the first image having a corresponding pixel in the second image, wherein each pixel has a value; obtain an intensity mapping function for the first and second images, wherein the intensity mapping function has a low cut-off value; generate, for pixels in the first image that have a value greater than the low cut-off value, a predicted second pixel for the corresponding pixel in the second image based, at least in part, on the intensity mapping function; generate, for pixels in the first image that have a value less than or equal to the low cut-off value, a predicted second pixel for the corresponding pixel in the second image; and fuse pixels in the first image with the corresponding predicted second pixels to generate an output image.
