Contrast Enhancement using Improved Adaptive Gamma Correction with Weighting Distribution Technique
نویسندگان
چکیده
One of the important techniques in digital image processing is to enhance images. Contrast enhancement is a method that is used to enhance images for viewing process or for further analysis of images. Main idea behind contrast enhancement techniques is to increase contrast and to preserve original brightness of images. In this paper a contrast enhancement technique is proposed that first segments histogram of image recursively and then applies Adaptive Gamma Correction with Weighting Distribution (AGCWD) Technique. The proposed technique is basically an improvement over AGCWD technique and aims to get better contrast enhancement and brightness preservation than AGCWD technique.

Adaptive Image Dehazing via Improving Dark Channel Prior
The dark channel prior (DCP) technique is an effective method to enhance hazy images. Dark channel is an image with the same size as the hazy image which represents the haze severity in different places of the image. The DCP method suffers from two problems: it is incapable for removing haze from smooth regions, causing blocking effects on these areas; it cannot properly reduce a haze with a no...
متن کاملContrast Enhancement of Brightness-Distorted Images by Improved Adaptive Gamma Correction
As an efficient image contrast enhancement (CE) tool, adaptive gamma correction (AGC) was previously proposed by relating gamma parameter with cumulative distribution function (CDF) of the pixel gray levels within an image. ACG deals well with most dimmed images, but fails for globally bright images and the dimmed images with local bright regions. Such two categories of brightness-distorted ima...
متن کاملDark and low-contrast image enhancement using dynamic stochastic resonance in discrete cosine transform domain
A novel technique based on dynamic stochastic resonance (DSR) in discrete cosine transform (DCT) domain has been proposed in this paper for the enhancement of dark as well as low-contrast images. In conventional DSR-based techniques, the performance of a system can be improved by addition of external noise. However, in the proposed DSR-based work, the intrinsic noise of an image has been utiliz...
متن کاملHSV-domain Enhancement of High-contrast Images - Power Laws and Unsharp Masking for Bounded and Circular Signals
We present techniques for performing luminance mapping and unsharp-masking-like processing on digital images; they are specifically designed for their application on bounded and on circular signals. We study the effect of gamma correction on contrast and develop an adaptive technique for luminance and contrast correction. We use the proposed tools for the enhancement of high contrast color images.
متن کاملA Technique for Enhancement of Gray Image using Local Gamma Correction
Image enhancement is used to improve the visual effects and the clarity of image or to make the original image more beneficial for computer to process. Uneven illumination always affects image quality serious in practice. To weaken illumination effect on image quality, local gamma correction with adaptive threshold is used to improve the visual appearance of the image or to provide better trans...
