COLOUR IMAGE ENHANCEMENT BASED ON HISTOGRAM EQUALIZATION

Histogram equalization is a nonlinear technique for adjusting the contrast of an image using its histogram. It increases the brightness of a gray scale image which is different from the mean brightness of the original image. There are various types of Histogram equalization techniques like Histogram Equalization, Contrast Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization, Brightness Preserving Bi Histogram Equalization, Dualistic Sub Image Histogram Equalization, Minimum Mean Brightness Error Bi Histogram Equalization, Recursive Mean Separate Histogram Equalization and Recursive Sub Image Histogram Equalization.
