High dynamic range image rendering with a retinex-based adaptive filter

L Meylan, S Susstrunk - IEEE Transactions on image …, 2006 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We propose a new method to render high dynamic range images that models global and
local adaptation of the human visual system. Our method is based on the center-surround …

Total variation models for variable lighting face recognition

T Chen, W Yin, XS Zhou, D Comaniciu… - IEEE transactions on …, 2006 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
In this paper, we present the logarithmic total variation (LTV) model for face recognition
under varying illumination, including natural lighting conditions, where we rarely know the …

Nighttime haze removal based on a new imaging model

J Zhang, Y Cao, Z Wang - 2014 IEEE international conference …, 2014 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Nighttime haze removal is important for different applications such as nighttime video
surveillance in haze environment. Different from the imaging conditions in the daytime …

Retinex by two bilateral filters

M Elad - International conference on scale-space theories in …, 2005 - Springer
Retinex theory deals with the removal of unfavorable illumination effects from images. This ill-
posed inverse problem is typically regularized by forcing spatial smoothness on the …

Variational Bayesian method for retinex

L Wang, L Xiao, H Liu, Z Wei - IEEE Transactions on Image …, 2014 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
In this paper, we propose a variational Bayesian method for Retinex to simulate and
interpret how the human visual system perceives color. To construct a hierarchical Bayesian …

Non-local Retinex---A unifying framework and beyond

D Zosso, G Tran, SJ Osher - SIAM Journal on Imaging Sciences, 2015 - SIAM
In this paper, we provide a short review of Retinex and then present a unifying framework.
The fundamental assumption of all Retinex models is that the observed image is a …

A fusion-based method for single backlit image enhancement

Q Wang, X Fu, XP Zhang, X Ding - 2016 IEEE international …, 2016 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
In this work, a new simple but effective fusion-based strategy for enhancing single backlit
image is proposed. The fundamental idea of proposed strategy is to blend different features …

Low-light image enhancement via pair of complementary gamma functions by fusion

C Li, S Tang, J Yan, T Zhou - Ieee Access, 2020 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Enhanced images by the traditional gamma correction (GC) method still have low contrast
within high illuminance regions. In order to enhance the visibility in dark regions and …

Unsupervised haze removal for high-resolution optical remote-sensing images based on improved generative adversarial networks

A Hu, Z Xie, Y Xu, M Xie, L Wu, Q Qiu - Remote Sensing, 2020 - mdpi.com
One major limitation of remote-sensing images is bad weather conditions, such as haze.
Haze significantly reduces the accuracy of satellite image interpretation. To solve this …

Low-light image enhancement by deep learning network for improved illumination map

M Wang, J Li, C Zhang - Computer Vision and Image Understanding, 2023 - Elsevier
In the case of insufficient illumination conditions, the quality of the captured image is poor. At
this time, increasing the brightness of the dark region of the whole image will inevitably …
