Abstract
An evaluation for objectively assessing the target detectability in night
vision color fusion images is proposed. On the assumption that target detectability
could be modeled as the perceptual color variation between the target and its
optimal sensitive background region, we propose an objective target detectability
metric in CIELAB color space defined by four color information features: target
luminance, region perceptual luminance variation in human vision system, region hue
difference, and region chroma difference. Experimental results show that this
proposed metric is perceptually meaningful because it corresponds well with
subjective evaluation.
