Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of computer vision and image processing, and particularly relates to a low-illumination video enhancement method and system based on a dark channel and motion estimation, and the method comprises the steps: obtaining an original low-illumination video which comprises a plurality of original image groups with the same size; performing image pixel inversion on all video frames in the original image group to obtain a pseudo fog image group; carrying out improved adaptive multi-scale minimum filtering to obtain a dark channel image group; carrying out absolute error and block constraint on adjacent image frame pixel blocks, and carrying out transmissivity matching or transmissivity block calculation to obtain the transmissivity of each image frame of the dark channel image group; stretching the transmissivity of each image frame to obtain a defogging result of each image frame of the dark channel image group; and carrying out image pixel inversion on the defogging result of each image frame to obtain an enhanced image video of the original low-illumination video. The method has the advantages of good video enhancement effect, low operation cost and good real-time enhancement capability.
