Low-complexity Histogram Modification Algorithm for Contrast Enhancement
نویسندگان
چکیده
Histogram equalization is widely used in different ways to perform contrast enhancement in images. In this paper, a new Histogram modification algorithm is proposed for contrast enhancement of images. Histogram Equalization (HE) is one of the most popular technique used for digital image enhancement, but it is not suitable to be implemented directly in consumer electronics, such as television, because this method tends to produce an output with saturation effect. To overcome this weakness, Lowcomplexity Histogram Modification Algorithm is proposed that works well with both video and still images, and it enhances the images without making any loss in image details. Key Terms: Contrast enhancement; Histogram equalization; Dynamic histogram specification; Histogram modification

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...
متن کاملDensity-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...
