چکیده

Histogram Equalization (HE) is an effective technique for contrast enhancement. However, the traditional HE method usually results in extreme over-enhancement, which causes the unnatural look and visual artifacts in the processed image. To solve the problem, we propose a novel Modulated Histogram Equalization (MHE) image contrast enhancement algorithm based on Adaptive Inverse Hyperbolic Tangent (AIHT) algorithm. The AIHT has long been known that the Human Vision System (HVS) heavily depends on details and edges in understanding its perception of scenes. The new method is capable of doing image contrast enhancement adaptively and globally, while extruding the details of objects simultaneously.

Modulated AIHT Image Contrast Enhancement Algorithm based on Contrast-Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization

The Adaptive Inverse Hyperbolic Tangent (AIHT) algorithm is capable of enhancing the global contrast of the original image adaptively, while extruding the details of objects simultaneously, cannot enhance local contrast. Therefore, we proposed a ContrastLimited Adaptive Histogram Equalization (CLAHE) modulation based on AIHT contrast enhancement algorithm from conjugate AIHT and CLAHE image con...

Density-Based Histogram Partitioning and Local Equalization for Contrast Enhancement of Images

Histogram Equalization technique is one of the basic methods in image contrast enhancement. Using this method, in the case of images with uniform gray levels (with narrow histogram), causes loss of image detail and the natural look of the image. To overcome this problem and to have a better image contrast enhancement, a new two-step method was proposed. In the first step, the image histogram is...

A General Framework for 1-D Histogram-baesd Image Contrast Enhancement

In this paper, a general framework for image contrast enhancement algorithm based on an optimization problem is presented. Through this optimization, the intensities can be better distributed. The algorithm is based on the facts that the histogram of the enhanced image is close to the input image histogram and uniform distribution, simultaneously. Based on this fact, we obtain a closed form opt...

Image Enhancement by Comparing Contrast value in Fuzzy Plane

In this paper, a novel approach is proposed for contrast enhancement of greyscale image using the fuzzy logic based techniques such as contrast intensification (INT) operator. In the proposed algorithm, a measure of contrast of an image is introduced which is maximized to obtain a suitable crossover point for an image. Using this crossover point, the enhanced image is obtained using the INT ope...
