Abstract
Nowadays multimodal image fusion has been majorly utilized as an important processing tool in various image related applications. For capturing useful information different sensors have been developed. Mainly such sensors are infrared (IR) image sensor and visible (VI) image sensor. Fusing both these sensors provides better and accurate scene information. The major application areas where this fused image has been mostly used are military, surveillance, and remote sensing. For better identification of targets and to understand overall scene information, the fused image has to provide better contrast and more edge information. This paper introduces a novel multimodal image fusion method mainly for improving contrast and as well as edge information. Primary step of this algorithm is to resize source images. The 3×3 sharpen filter and morphology hat transform are applied separately on resized IR image and VI image. DWT transform has been used to produce "low-frequency" and "high-frequency" sub-bands. "Filters based mean-weighted fusion rule" and "Filters based max-weighted fusion rule" are newly introduced in this algorithm for combining "low-frequency" sub-bands and "high-frequency" sub-bands respectively. Fused image reconstruction is done with IDWT. Proposed method has outperformed and shown improved results in subjective manner and objectively than similar existing techniques.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
