K. Natarajan Assistant Professor, Department of Computer Science, AVC College(Autonomous), Mannampandal, Tamilnadu, India. ---------------------------------------------------------------------***--------------------------------------------------------------------Abstract Image enhancement is one of the preprocessing step in various computer vision applications. It is the process of improving the quality of image without any information loss. Usually the images are affected by various facts. Especially in underwater imagery, the haze and hue variations are greatly affected. This paper discusses the issues in underwater images and compares the existing image enhancement techniques for underwater images.

A review on image enhancement and color correction techniques for underwater images
Degradation of underwater images is different from normal images. In underwater imaging light interact with water in two ways, scattering and absorption. The scattering and absorption together is called attenuation of light in water. This attenuation is wavelength dependent. Because of scattering and absorption, underwater images are affected by back scattering, forward scattering and absorptio...
متن کاملImage Enhancement and Restoration Methods for Underwater Images
In this chapter, the authors provide an overview of state-of-the-art image enhancement and restoration techniques for underwater images. Underwater imaging is one of the challenging tasks in the field of image processing and computer vision. Usually, underwater images suffer from non-uniform lighting, low contrast, diminished color, and blurring due to attenuation and scattering of light in the...
متن کاملPerformance Evaluation of Image Processing Algorithms for Underwater Image Enhancement in FPGA
Underwater photography is challenging due to poor illumination and varying environment condition. Due to the insufficient illumination provided by the Automated Underwater Vehicles (AUV), the obtained degraded images need to be enhanced. Image enhancement techniques have to be implemented in hardware to be used with AUVs. Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) have been proved to be a better opt...
متن کاملA Review of Enhancement Techniques of Underwater Images
Underwater image pre-processing is absolutely necessary due to the quality of images captured under water. When capture such images, quality of images degrade due to many factors like ripples in water, lack of availability of light, organic matter dissolved in water etc and also such images are captured from a very small distance , so the images must be pre processed before applying any kind of...
متن کاملReview on Enhancement of Underwater Images
Underwater vision is a significant issue in ocean engineering. Atmospheric images and underwater images undergo from medium scattering and light distortion, leading to the low contrast and visibility of images. However, there are some different characters of the underwater images. Firstly, catching pictures submerged is troublesome, because of the weakening caused by light that is reflected fro...
