Abstract |
|
The images degraded by haze suffer from poor contrast. In order to remove haze effect, a Contrast limited adaptive histogram equalization (CLAHE) and Mixture contrast limited adaptive histogram equalization (Mix-CLAHE) methods are presented in this paper. Mixture Contrast Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization color models that speciï¬cally developed for underwater image enhancement. The method applies CLAHE on RGB and HSV color models and both results are combined together. Experimental results show that the Mix-CLAHE have better results than HSV and RGB CLAHE. Mix-CLAHE signiï¬cantly improves the visual quality of underwater images by enhancing contrast, as well as minimizing noise and artifacts. |
