The basic intent of the contrast enhancement technique is to adjust the local contrast in the image so as to bring out the clear regions or objects in the image . Low-contrast images often result from poor or non-uniform lighting conditions, a limited dynamic range of the imaging sensor , or improper settings of the lens aperture.
If we define a new palette as P'=P(M) and leave image I unchanged then histogram equalization is implemented as palette change or mapping change. On the other hand, if palette P remains unchanged and image is modified to I'=M(I) then the implementation is accomplished by image change. In most cases palette change is better as it preserves the ...
Adaptive histogram equalization (AHE) is a computer image processing technique used to improve contrast in images. It differs from ordinary histogram equalization in the respect that the adaptive method computes several histograms, each corresponding to a distinct section of the image, and uses them to redistribute the lightness values of the image.
OpenCV (Open Source Computer Vision Library) is a library of programming functions mainly for real-time computer vision. [2] Originally developed by Intel, it was later supported by Willow Garage, then Itseez (which was later acquired by Intel [3]). The library is cross-platform and licensed as free and open-source software under Apache License ...
Python Imaging Library is a free and open-source additional library for the Python programming language that adds support for opening, manipulating, and saving many different image file formats. It is available for Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. The latest version of PIL is 1.1.7, was released in September 2009 and supports Python 1.5.2–2.7. [3]
The r* cross-correlation metric is based on the variance metrics of SSIM. It's defined as r*(x, y) = σ xy / σ x σ y when σ x σ y ≠ 0, 1 when both standard deviations are zero, and 0 when only one is zero. It has found use in analyzing human response to contrast-detail phantoms. [18] SSIM has also been used on the gradient of ...
Tone mapped high-dynamic-range (HDR) image of St. Kentigerns Roman Catholic Church in Blackpool, Lancashire, England, UK. Tone mapping is a technique used in image processing and computer graphics to map one set of colors to another to approximate the appearance of high-dynamic-range (HDR) images in a medium that has a more limited dynamic range.
In image processing, a kernel, convolution matrix, or mask is a small matrix used for blurring, sharpening, embossing, edge detection, and more.This is accomplished by doing a convolution between the kernel and an image.
