 Aim and Objectives

Aim: To improve the interpretability or perception of

information in images for human viewers, or to provide
`better' input for other automated image processing
techniques.

Objective: Process an image so that the result is more

suitable than the original image for a specific application.

Contextual and Variational Contrast Enhancement (2011) IEEE Paper

 Contrast enhancement is used to either increase the contrast of an image with low dynamic
range or to bring out image details. The enhanced image looks subjectively better than the
original image as the greylevel differences (i.e., the contrast) among objects and background
are increased
 All the above approaches use a 1-dimensional (1D) histogram.
 The biggest disadvantage of this method is it does not preserve brightness of an image. The
brightness get changed after histogram equalization. Hence preserving the original brightness
and enhancing contrast are essential to avoid other side effects

 The aim of image enhancement is to extract hidden image

details and enhance the contrast in images with a low
dynamic range. The large number of images captured by the
widespread use of digital imaging devices has significantly
increased the demand for image enhancement
 We recognize that the main reason for this limitation is that
non-uniform illumination significantly reduces the
magnitude of the spatial information. To address this issue,
we propose defining spatial information on the basis of
image reflectance estimated with edge-preserving
smoothingsuch that the HE can be guided by the reflectance
for high adaptabil-ity.

 Methodology of the Proposed Project
• Reflectance Orientated Probabilistic Equalization(ROPE) provides the most pleasant
brightness. It demonstrates much greater adaptability and consistency and our
approach is capable of improving brightness sufficiently for dark images while
avoiding excessive enhancement for normal-light images.
• Image segmentation :It is a method of dividing a digital image into subgroups
called image segments, reducing the complexity of the image and enabling further
processing or analysis of each image segment.
• A common use of image segmentation is in object detection. Instead of processing
the entire image , we will only enhance the particular part that is segmented

 Image equalization

• Image equalization stretches the scale range of the pixel levels

to the full range to give an improved contrast for the given

image.

• It is used to improve contrast in images
