چکیده

An Adaptive Contrast image enhancement is proposed for degraded color images. The fogs are removed in two concerns, at initial stage the foggy image information’s are extracted which means that HIS components are obtained by converting RGB component from an input image. At second stage the Intensity (I) has been calculated by contrast enhancement and then adjusted with the value of atmospheric light. After completion of morphological operation the fog is slightly removed from an source image. It is observed that transmission ratio is not perfect for the output of calculated atmospheric light and morphological operation. Because the fog is still exist according to the distance of the object. Moreover the gamma adjustment is made for image which comes from fulfillment operation of transmission ratio and morphological operation. Finally the enhanced defogging image has been obtained as a required or goal output. The resultant image has increased efficiency and reduced system computation time. The proposed method overcomes the drawbacks of retinex method of theory approach.

A Contrast Enhancement Based Algorithm to Improve Visibility of Colored Foggy Images

Images captured in foggy weather conditions get highly degraded due to suffering from poor contrast and loss of color characteristics. This paper presents a contrast enhancement algorithm for such degraded color images. To restore both contrast and color we propose following four steps: 1) RGB component of the input image is converted into Hue Intensity Saturation (HIS) components; 2) Applying ...

Image Enhancement Using an Adaptive Un-sharp Masking Method Considering the Gradient Variation

Technical limitations in image capturing usually impose defective, such as contrast degradation. There are different approaches to improve the contrast of an image. Among the exiting approaches, un-sharp masking is a popular method due to its simplicity in implementation and computation. There is an important parameter in un-sharp masking, named gain factor, which affects the quality of the enh...

Parallel Beamformation Method to Enhance Ultrasound Images

Contrast resolution and detail resolution are two important parameters in ultrasound imaging. This paper presents a new method to enhance these parameters, simultaneously. A parallel auxiliary beamformer has been employed whose weightings are such that an estimation of the leaked signal through the main beamformer is obtained. Then the output of main beamformer is modified according to the ...

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...
