A Color Image Enhancement Based on Improved Genetic Algorithm

Abstract:

Image enhancement plays a fundamental role in image processing. Because of the influence of internal and external factors such as the sensor precision,light,random noise.It has a certain difficulty for image recognition directly.To solve such problems, we proposed a novel and efficient enhancement method based on improved genetic algorithm. This paper combined median filter and improved genetic algorithm to enhance the visual effect of color image. Simulation results proved that the proposed method was stronger than traditional method in terms of details and contrast enhancement and natural visual effect.
