Evaluation of Multimodal Image Fusion performance on the test split of the M3FD dataset, reporting quality metrics such as EN, MI, and VIF.

A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage.

| Scope | Recorded value |
| --- | --- |
| Task | Multimodal Image Fusion |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | M3FD (test) |
| Metric | Entropy (EN) |
| Unit | SCALAR |
| Direction | Higher is better |
| Results loaded | 18 of 18 |
| Coverage | All results currently returned for this benchmark |

Evaluation settings may differ between results. The original papers and recorded configurations are needed to establish comparability. A shared metric name alone does not establish an identical protocol.

## Metrics

- [Entropy (EN)](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/multimodal-image-fusion-on-m3fd-test.md?metric=Entropy%20(EN)>): Higher is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [MI](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/multimodal-image-fusion-on-m3fd-test.md?metric=MI>): Higher is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [VIF](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/multimodal-image-fusion-on-m3fd-test.md?metric=VIF>): Higher is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [SD](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/multimodal-image-fusion-on-m3fd-test.md?metric=SD>): Higher is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [SCD](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/multimodal-image-fusion-on-m3fd-test.md?metric=SCD>): Higher is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [SSIM](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/multimodal-image-fusion-on-m3fd-test.md?metric=SSIM>): Higher is better; unit: SCALAR.
