Yiming Sun, Yuan Ruan, Qinghua Hu, Pengfei Zhu
CtrlFuse is a semantic-aware framework enabling interactively controllable infrared and visible image fusion through mask prompts, leveraging foundation models like SAM. It generates high-quality fused images that enhance performance for downstream semantic segmentation and object detection tasks, demonstrating improved accuracy and dynamic emphasis on specific targets.
Key insights
- Injecting explicit semantic guidance via mask prompts significantly enhances fused image quality and their suitability for downstream perception tasks.
- A synergistic optimization between fusion quality and task performance (segmentation/detection) can be achieved, where both mutually enhance each other.
- Foundation models like SAM can be effectively leveraged and fine-tuned to introduce interactive and adaptable semantic control into low-level image processing tasks.
