This paper presents a novel multi-layer perceptron (MLP) based image fusion technique, which fuses two synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images, obtained from the same spatial reflectivity map, acquired with a conventional low-cost fractional synthetic aperture radar (Fr-SAR) system, enhanced via two different methodologies. The first image is enhanced using the traditional descriptive experiment design regularization (DEDR) framework through the projection onto convex solution sets (POCS) method; the second image is enhanced with the DEDR framework by incorporating the robust adaptive spatial filtering (RASF) solution operator. This work describes a MLP based technique applied to the pixel level multi-focus fusion problem characterized by the use of image windows with the idea of reducing noise and determining which pixel is clearer between the two images. Experimental results show that the proposed novel method outperforms the discrete wavelet transform based most competing approach.
