Apparent Greyscale: A Simple and Fast Conversion to Perceptually Accurate Images and Video

This paper presents a quick and simple method for converting complex images and video to perceptually accurate greyscale versions. We use a two‐step approach first to globally assign grey values and determine colour ordering, then second, to locally enhance the greyscale to reproduce the original contrast. Our global mapping is image independent and incorporates the Helmholtz‐Kohlrausch colour appearance effect for predicting differences between isoluminant colours. Our multiscale local contrast enhancement reintroduces lost discontinuities only in regions that insufficiently represent original chromatic contrast. All operations are restricted so that they preserve the overall image appearance, lightness range and differences, colour ordering, and spatial details, resulting in perceptually accurate achromatic reproductions of the colour original.     

De-hazing and enhancement method for underwater and low-light images

Because underwater and low-light images have different characteristics, there are few methods to jointly improve the visibility of these images. This paper proposes a de-hazing and enhancement method for underwater and low-light images to describe the two types of images uniformly. Multi-scale retinex color recovery (MSRCR) and guided filtering methods are used for de-hazing; the proposed method of white balance fusion global guided image filtering (G-GIF), effectively solve the problems of dim light, color distortion, and loss of edge details. Experiments show that compared with other methods, this method can effectively solve the image exposure, and at the same time, it can better protect and enhance the image’s color saturation and edge texture details, thus achieving a very good visual effect.

Image fuzzy enhancement algorithm based on contourlet transform domain

In order to solve the problems of low contrast, global darkness and noise amplification in some hyperspectral and remote-sensing images, a new image fuzzy enhancement method based on contourlet transform (CT) domain is proposed. The algorithm includes the following four steps. Firstly, the cyclic translation method is used to suppress the pseudo-Gibbs phenomenon caused by the lack of translation invariance of the CT. Secondly, a nonlinear gain function is designed to enhance and suppress the high-frequency coefficients adaptively. Meanwhile, the multi-scale Retinex with mixed gray function is used to process the low-frequency sub-band coefficients. Then, the inverse translation and linear averaging and the inverse CT are performed on the enhanced coefficients, and finally the improved fuzzy contrast is used to enhance the texture and edge of the image globally. The experimental results show that the proposed method can make the image texture details more prominent, and enhance the overall visual effect of the images. Furthermore, the absolute mean difference and PSNR of images are also greatly improved .

Luminance adaptation transform based on brightness functions for LDR image reproduction

Tone mapping algorithms are used for image processing to reduce the dynamic range of an image to be displayed on low dynamic range (LDR) devices. The Retinex, which was developed using multi-scale and luminance-based methods, is one of the tone mapping algorithms for dynamic range compression, color constancy and color rendition. Retinex algorithms still have drawbacks, such as lower contrast and desaturation. This paper proposes a multi-scale luminance adaptation transform (MLAT) based on visual brightness functions for the enhancement of contrast and saturation of rendered images. In addition, the proposed algorithm was used to estimate the minimum and maximum luminance and a visual gamma function for local adapted viewing conditions. MLAT showed enhanced contrast and better color representation than the conventional methods in the objective evaluations (CIEDE200 and VCM).

Histogram modification based enhancement along with contrast-changed image quality assessment

Contrast is the difference in visual characteristics which make an object more recognizable. Despite the significance of contrast enhancement (CE) in image processing applications, few attempts have been made on assessment of the contrast change. In this paper, a visual information fidelity-based contrast change metric (VIF-CCM) is presented which includes visual information fidelity (VIF), local entropy, correlation coefficient, and mean intensity measures. The validation results of the presented VIF-CCM show its efficiency and superiority over the state-of–the-arts image quality assessment metrics. A histogram modification based contrast enhancement (HMCE) method is also proposed in this paper. The proposed HMCE comprises of four steps: segmentation of the input image, employing a set of weighting constraints, applying the combination of adaptive gamma correction and equalization on modified histogram, and optimization the value of the constraint weights by PSO algorithm. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed HMCE outperforms other existing CE methods subjectively and objectively.
