Survey on Histogram Equalization method based Image Enhancement techniques

Abstract

Image Enhancement is the process of improving the image quality for better visibility of images. The visibility and look of image will be decided by human eyes, which varies from person to person. The images resulted by quality measures made by hardware and software may not be always good and are not having natural look. Many methods are introduced to enhance images. Histogram Equalization is the method in which, the histograms of the input images are altered to obtain the enhanced images. In this paper, we studied various methods of Histogram Equalization, the different types are briefly explained and placed in chronological order in table.
