Frequency histograms are ubiquitous, being practically used in any field of science. In this paper, we present a partial order for frequency and, to our knowledge, no kind has been yet defined. This is based on the stochastic discrete probability distributions and it invariance properties that make unique. First, model histogram as sequence bins associated with (or relative frequency) distribut...

A novel Illumination based Sub-Image Histogram Equalization (ISIHE) method for contrast enhancement for low illumination gray scale images is presented in this paper. As the main crux of paper, illumination thresholds are computed and used to divide the original image into sub-images of different intensity levels. To control the enhancement rate, the histogram is clipped using a threshold value...

-------------------------------------------------------ABSTRACT ------------------------------------------------------------Image Enhancement aims at improving the visual quality of input image for a particular area. The criterion used by enhancement algorithms to enhance the image is; using histogram details of that image. This paper defines the various applications of histograms through which...

This paper deals with some error effects caused by additive noise at analogue-to-digital converters (ADCs) testing based on the histogram method and the exponential shape of input testing stimulus. The histogram method with the exponential stimulus has been an alternative test method for ADC that was developed by the authors of this paper. Here, the theoretical analysis of some errors in estima...

This paper has discuss the various techniques for image enhancement i.e histogram equalization, Brightness preserving bi-histogram equalization(BBHE), Dualistic Sub-Image Histogram Equalization (DSIHE), Minimum Mean Brightness Error Bi-HE Method (MMBEBHE), Recursive Mean –Separate HE Method (RMSHE),Mean brightness preserving histogram equalization(MBPHE).As well as it represents the comparison ...

BACKGROUND The high variations of background luminance, low contrast and excessively enhanced contrast of hand bone radiograph often impede the bone age assessment rating system in evaluating the degree of epiphyseal plates and ossification centers development. The Global Histogram equalization (GHE) has been the most frequently adopted image contrast enhancement technique but the performance i...

We have done a detailed analysis of the properties of the HSV (Hue, Saturation and Intensity Value) color space. Our emphasis is on the visual perception of the color of an image pixel with the variation in hue, saturation and intensity values of the pixel. Using the results of this analysis, we determine relative importance of hue and intensity based on the saturation of a pixel. We apply this...

-Thresholding is an important form of image segmentation and is a first step in the processing of images for many applications. The selection of suitable thresholds is ideally an automatic process, requiring the use of some criterion on which the selection is based. Most such criteria are only based on the one-dimensional (1D) gray-level histogram of image. In an effort to use more information ...
