چکیده

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain is a precious tool to facilitate physician’s diagnoses and care for a mixture of brain diseases including stroke, cancer, and epilepsy. It presents exact information to discover the diseases. Histogram equalization is one of the important steps in image enhancement technique for MRI. This paper compares different methods like Brightness Preserving Bi-Histogram Equalization (BPBHE), Recursive Mean Separated Histogram Equalization (RMSHE), Brightness Preserving Dynamic Histogram Equalization (BPDHE), Dualistic Sub-Image Histogram Equalization (DSIHE), Minimum Mean Brightness Error Bi-HE Method (MMBEBHE), using different objective quality metrics for MRI brain image Enhancement.

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...
