Abstract

The invention relates to a shallow sea underwater image enhancement method based on relative global histogram extension. The shallow sea underwater image enhancement method comprises input image module, an image RGB histogram distribution analysis module, a relative global histogram extension module, a global extension module and an output image module. The advantages are that the method is low in image enhancement computation complexity, good in effect, good in robustness and suitable for various shallow sea underwater images of underwater plants, shallow sea personnel and seabed rocks and the like; the method can calculate parameters of a relative extension range and automatically select the extension range, and can accurately position a range to be extended; through a color correction method, color loss of global extension of S and V is carried out through an HSV color space; and the method can enhance contrast, saturation and visibility of each underwater image.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of underwater image enhancement, in particular to a shallow sea underwater image enhancement method based on relative global histogram stretching. Background technique [0002] In order to explore underwater fishery resources, mineral resources, and geological structures, people need to restore the real situation underwater through underwater images. However, underwater images have low visibility and low contrast. In recent years, more and more people are studying how to enhance underwater images, but the image enhancement technology that takes into account effectiveness, real-time and robustness is still facing challenges. Since underwater images are subject to light dispersion and absorption, the degradation of image quality is mainly reflected in the loss of image contrast saturation. [0003] Restoring clear and real underwater images and videos is of great significance to the research of marine ecology...
