The subject of this chapter is image similarity measures. These measure provide a quantitative measure of the degree of match between two images, or image patches, A and B. Image similarity measures play an important role in many image fusion algorithms and applications including retrieval, classification, change detection, quality evaluation and registration. For the sake of concreteness we shall concentrate on intensity based similarity measures.
