Problems solved by technology

[0003] Traditional infrared image contrast enhancement methods are not ideal for contrast enhancement of wide dynamic range infrared images with background and high-temperature targets at the same time, such as enhancement processing methods based on infrared image histograms, nonlinear enhancement processing methods based on gamma, The traditional image enhancement processing methods based on space domain and time domain, because these methods do not consider the image information features of the infrared image neighborhood or consider too few image information features of the infrared image neighborhood, and the information of the background and the target cannot be taken into account, which will inevitably lead to infrared Image contrast enhancement is very limited
The new infrared image contrast enhancement method, such as the infrared image enhancement method based on the retinex theory, can have a better analysis and consideration of the image information in the infrared image neighborhood due to the introduction of the analysis and calculation of the incident light component, and has better contrast enhancement. effect, but its method introduces logarithmic calculation, which is difficult in engineering implementation

Abstract

The invention relates to a wide dynamic range infrared image contrast enhancement method. The method comprises the following steps: extracting local information of an infrared image by utilizing a multi-layer image mask, selecting image mask characteristic factors with different sizes for different filtering windows in the calculation of the multi-layer mask image, selecting different filtering degrees for different contrast areas in the image, and finally achieving the effect of adaptively improving the enhancement degree for a low contrast area in the image. According to the method, under the condition of a wide dynamic range, the contrast ratio of the infrared image is effectively improved, and the observation effect of the infrared image can be obviously improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of image processing and relates to a method for enhancing the contrast of infrared images with a wide dynamic range. Background technique [0002] Most of the existing infrared thermal imaging cameras have the characteristics of low contrast, high noise and poor visual effect under the condition of wide dynamic range, which seriously affects the image of infrared products. Therefore, it is very important for infrared products to choose a suitable infrared image contrast enhancement method to improve the visual effect of infrared images. [0003] Traditional infrared image contrast enhancement methods are not ideal for contrast enhancement of wide dynamic range infrared images with background and high-temperature targets at the same time, such as enhancement processing methods based on infrared image histograms, nonlinear enhancement processing methods based on gamma, The traditional image enhancement proces...
