Color Balance for Underwater Image Enhancement
Munwar Ali Shaik · International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology · 2018
Image Enhancement is a process of improving the quality of an image by contrast improvement of the image. The most important attributes to acquire and extract more information from underwater images are color and contrast. But underwater images usually suffer from low-contrast, motion blur effect due to turbulence in the flow of water and non-uniform illumination. This paper shows a comparative study of different Histogram based techniques for improving the color and contrast of underwater images and introduces a suitable color balance method for underwater image enhancement.
