Preserving the information of multi-focus source images was neglected in previous image fusion schemes since source image data discarding will happen during the fusion process. Data hiding technology can utilize the redundant bits to embed essential secret data. Inspired from that we proposed a multi-focus image reconstruction algorithm using adaptive regional data hiding. Integrating the Human Visual System (HVS) into the reconstruction module, we further proposed a visual grayscale information entropy operator, which is implemented to segment fused images into texture and flat regions for adaptive data hiding after unfocused region data compression. Our method achieves excellent performances in reconstruction Peak signal-to-noise Ratio (PSNR) above 43dB and maintains the satisfying visual effect of the fused images.
