Color Image Enhancement Through 3-D Histogram Equalization
نویسندگان
چکیده
The well known method of histogram equalization for grey-level image enhancement is extended to color images in this paper. A method of direct 3-D histogram equalization is proposed which results in a uniform histogram of the RGB values. Due to the correlation between the bands, the principle on which grey-level (10) histogram equalization is based is not valid in the case of color images (3-0). This problem is alleviated b y employing a histogram specification method where a uniform histogram is specified.

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...
