SwinEIF: Explicit and implicit Swin Transformer fusion for infrared and visible images

Hongfu Zhang, Xing Wu, Qiuman Zeng, Linrui Shi, Gaochang Wu

Abstract: Highlights•We integrate explicit and implicit fusion techniques within the Swin Transformer architecture.•We propose a two-stage training strategy to implement targeted training for different modules.•We design a DWT-based fusion decoder to implicitly fuse information from different modalities.
