A multi-focus image fusion algorithm is proposed based on CNN segmentation and algebraic multi-grid method (CNN-AMG). Firstly, the CNN segmentation result was utilized to instruct the merging process of the regions generated by the Watershed segmentation method. Then the clear regions were selected into the temporary fusion image and the final fusion process was performed according to the clarity evaluation index, which was computed with the algebraic multi-grid method (AMG). The experimental results show that the fused image quality obtained by the CNNAMG algorithm outperforms the traditional fusion methods such as DSIFT fusion method, CNN fusion method, ASR fusion method, GFF fusion method and so on with some evaluation indexes.展开更多
