Considering the problems of the limited energy in wireless multi-media sensor networks (WMSNs) and the focused regions discontinuity of the fused image obtained using traditional multi-scale analysis tools (MST)-based methods, an effective multi-focus image fusion algorithm is proposed in this paper. In this method, the original fused image is obtained based on wavelet transform where the low-frequency coefficients are fused by average scheme, whereas the high-frequency coefficients are fused by the proposed merging rule consisting of the grey ...
