Adaptive Intensity Transformation

This paper presents an optimal contrast enhancement approach for remote sensing images that first performs discrete wavelet transform on the input image and splits the low-low sub band into intensity layers. It then uses knee and gamma transfer functions based on the dominant brightness level of each layer to compute adaptive intensity transfer functions. After applying a sparse representation technique for more resolution and inverse discrete wavelet transform, it provides optimally contrast enhanced images. This overcomes problems of degrading quality from histogram equalization techniques while optimally enhancing contrast and resolution.

This paper presents an optimal contrast enhancement approach for remote sensing images

based on dominant brightness level analysis and adaptive intensity transformation for remote
sensing images. The proposed system first perform discrete wavelet transform (DWT) on the
input images and then split the LL sub band into low-, middle-, and high-intensity layers
using the logaverage luminance. The knee transfer function and the gamma adjustment
function based on the dominant brightness level of each layer are used to compute the
adaptive intensity transfer functions. Then a sparse representation technique is added to gain
more resolution. After this transformation, the resulting optimally contrast enhanced image is
obtained by using the inverse DWT. The various histogram equalization approaches proposed
in the literature, degrade the overall quality of image by altering the saturation in low- and
high-intensity regions, and also will not give optimal contrast enhancement. The proposed
algorithm overcomes this problem by optimally enhancing the contrast and also the resolution
of the input image. The proposed algorithm enhances the overall contrast and visibility of
local details better than existing techniques and also gives optimal contrast. The proposed
method can optimally enhance any low-contrast satellite images and are also suitable for
other various imaging devices such as consumer digital cameras, photorealistic 3-D
reconstruction systems, and computational cameras.
