A New Approach for Contrast Enhancement of Infrared Images Based on Contrast Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper proposes a novel enhancement method for infrared images (IR) .This algorithm based on contrast limited adaptive histogram equalization (CLAHE) that adaptive and improves infrared images. Some attempts are proposed for enhancement of infrared images using this model, since infrared images have several many applications, it is expected that CLAHE would be better in their enhancement than histogram equalization (HE). The simulation results show the superiority of CLAHE to HE in the enhancement of IR images from both the visual quality and Peak-to-peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) points of view. So, applying this proposed method reinforces visual details in IR images 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...
متن کاملImproved Region of Interest for Infrared Images Using Rayleigh Contrast-Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization
This paper presents an improved approach for region of interest (ROI) extraction in infrared (IR) images using Contrast-Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization (CLAHE). Previous approaches use global image enhancement to increase the accuracy for ROI extraction in IR images. It is shown in this paper that the performance can be increased significantly using a local enhancement approach. CLAHE i...
متن کاملEfficient algorithm for contrast enhancement of natural images
This paper proposed an efficient algorithm for contrast enhancement of natural images. The contrast of images is very important characteristics by which the quality of images can be judged as good or poor. The proposed algorithm consists of two stages: In the first stage the poor quality of an image is processed by modified sigmoid function. In the second stage the output of the first stage is ...
