Contrast enhancement

• Using the histogram equalization, we can enhance the contrast in low contrast images. This algorithm uses the cummulative distribution function to map the intensities of a low distribuited histogram into a more spreaded one.

• Implementation of the histogram equalization algorithm for image contrast enhancement.

• It requires the libraries:

  • numpy
  • matplotlib

Setup instructions

Install the libraries numpy and matplotlib using the following:

pip3 install matplotlib

pip3 install numpy

Inside of the Contrast enhancement folder run:

python3 contrast_enhancement.py
