Local Contrast Enhancement using Local Standard Deviation
نویسندگان
چکیده
For a detailed visibility of an image, since only the global enhancement is not sufficient, local contrast enhancement plays a great role. One of the successful locally adaptive image contrast enhancement methods is by using Local Standard Deviation (LSD). The contrast enhancement using LSD is successfully used in many applications like in medical images, real time images, surveillance applications and many others. These types of applications employ a contrast factor which is divided by LSD. For such type of methods, limitation occurs when the LSD becomes zero. This limitation due to divide by zero can be overcome by adjusting the LSD to a modified value.

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...
متن کاملA Comprehensive Method for Image Contrast Enhancement Based on Global –local Contrast and Local Standard Deviation
Image contrast enhancement is used to increase the detailed visibility of an image by performing some transformation on input image. Global contrast enhancement and local contrast enhancement both are the very popular method for contrast enhancement. But these two methods are also not sufficient in order to enhance an image when image has some constant area and it is not possible to perform any...
متن کاملA Global-Local Contrast based Image Enhancement Technique based on Local Standard Deviation
Contrast Enhancement plays an important role in digital image processing. It enables the human and automated perceiver to find out the less obvious information in the original image. Global Contrast Enhancement techniques are used in a wide range of applications to enhance the quality of an image. Local contrast enhancement also plays an important role for a detailed visibility of an image. In ...
متن کاملA Local Contrast Enhancement Method for Mammograms in the Curvelet Domain
In this paper, a method aimed at optimizing contrast of mammographic features is presented. Contrast enhancement is accomplished by applying local range modification on curvelet coefficients. The standard deviation of coefficient values for each scale/angle pair (j,l) is calculated as an index to increase the gain of subband curvelet coefficients. The processed image is derived by reconstructio...
متن کاملImage enhancement using the median and the interquartile distance
Enhancement and noise cleaning algorithms based on local medians and interquartile distances are more effective than those using local means and standard deviations for the removal of spikelike noise, preserve edge sharpness better, and introduce fewer artifacts around high contrast edges present in the original data. They are usually not as fast as the mean-standard deviation equivalents, but ...
