Embodiment Construction

[0058] The invention removes the color cast of the image by improving the color correction coefficient of the gray-scale world algorithm, so that the image has a good visual effect; in addition, the introduced multi-scale detail enhancement algorithm enhances the detail information of the image, and finally improves the color correction and contrast enhancement. Wavelet fusion is performed on the two images to further denoise and enhance the image. . The specific technical solutions are detailed as follows:

[0059] 1 Color Correction

[0060] Because light in different spectral regions decays at different rates in water, with red light attenuating the fastest, followed by green light, and finally blue light, images captured in water typically exhibit a blue-green cast. The gray-scale world method is the most commonly used method to remove color casts in underwater images, which assumes that the average reflection of objects to light is a constant value. Using this assumpti...

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of underwater image processing, and provides an underwater image enhancement algorithm under a low illumination condition. Therefore, the technical schemeadopted by the invention is as follows: the low-illumination underwater image enhancement method based on multi-scale detail enhancement comprises the following steps: firstly, removing color cast ofan image by improving a color correction coefficient of a gray world algorithm, so that the image has a very good visual effect; the introduced multi-scale detail enhancement algorithm enhancing the detail information of the image, and finally wavelet fusion being performed on the color-corrected image and the contrast-enhanced image so as to further perform noise reduction and enhancement on theimage. The method is mainly applied to underwater image processing occasions.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of image processing, and relates to a low-light underwater image enhancement method based on multi-scale detail enhancement. Background technique [0002] High-quality underwater images are the basis for accomplishing underwater computer vision tasks. However, due to the low visibility of the underwater environment, especially at night or under low-light conditions with low light, the acquired underwater images often have problems such as color cast, low contrast, and blurred details, which brings great challenges to subsequent research and practical applications. great difficulty. Therefore, the research on underwater image enhancement algorithm under low light conditions has important value and practical significance. [0003] Underwater images under low light conditions often have problems of low contrast and blurred details. To solve this problem, a comprehensive underwater image enhancement algorithm ...
