Abstract
In this paper, we describe a novel technique for image fusion and enhancement, using
Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD). EMD is a non-parametric data-driven analysis
tool that decomposes non-linear non-stationary signals into Intrinsic Mode Functions
(IMFs). In this method, we decompose images, rather than signals, from different imaging
