Comparison of Histogram Equalization Techniques for Image Enhancement of Grayscale images of Dawn and Dusk

Journal Title: International Journal of Modern Engineering Research (IJMER) - Year 2013, Vol 3, Issue 4

Abstract

 Various enhancement schemes are used for enhancing an image which includes gray scale manipulation, filtering and Histogram Equalization (HE). Histogram equalization is one of the well known image enhancement became a popular technique for contrast enhancement because this method is simple and effective. In the latter case, preserving the input brightness of the image is required to avoid the generation of non-existing artifacts in the output image. Although these methods preserve the input brightness on the output image with a significant contrast enhancement, they may produce images which do not look as natural as the input ones. The basic idea of HE method is to re-map the gray levels of an image. HE tends to introduce some annoying artifacts and unnatural enhancement. To overcome these drawbacks different brightness preserving techniques are used which are covered in the literature survey. There are different images used in different time period and comparison on the basis of subjective and objective parameters. Subjective parameters are visual quality and computation time and objective parameters are Peak signal noise ratio (PSNR), Mean squared error (MSE), Normalized Absolute Error (NAE), Normalized Correlation, Error Color and Composite Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (CPSNR).[b][/b]
