Abstract

Image enhancement is a process of improving the quality of image by improving its feature. The underwater images suffer from low contrast and resolution due to scattering of light and poor visibility conditions. In this paper we proposed an image enhancement technique to enhance the quality of underwater images. The proposed technique comprises a combination of classical contrast enhancement techniques and fuzzy-histogram equalization techniques. For comparing the performance, some statistics parameter is used. The proposed technique comprises a combination of classical contrast enhancement techniques and fuzzy-histogram equalization techniques. Experiment results demonstrate the effectiveness of fuzzy logic techniques to enhance the quality of the underwater images.
