Contrast enhancement has an important role in image processing applications. This paper presents a color enhancement algorithm based on adaptive filter technique. First, the proposed method is divided into three major parts: obtain luminance image and backdrop image, adaptive modification and color restoration. different traditional color image enhancement algorithms, the adaptive filter in the algorithm takes color information into consideration. The algorithm finds the significance of color information in color image enhancement and utilizes color space conversion to obtain a much better visibility. In the practical results, the proposed method reproduces better enhancement and reduce the halo distortion compared with the bilateral  methods.

This paper proposes a method for improving saturation in the context of hue-preserving color image enhancement. The proposed method handles colors in an RGB color space, which has the form of a cube, and enhances the contrast of a given image by histogram manipulation, such as histogram equalization and histogram specification, of the intensity image. Then, the color corresponding to a target intensity is determined in a hue-preserving manner, where a gamut problem should be taken into account. We first project any color onto a surface in the RGB color space, which bisects the RGB color cube, to increase the saturation without a gamut problem. Then, we adjust the intensity of the saturation-enhanced color to the target intensity given by the histogram manipulation. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method achieves higher saturation than that given by related methods for hue-preserving color image enhancement.

In order to improve the ensemble of color image, this paper proposes homomorphism decomposition—wavelet enhancement algorithm based on the basic principle of Wavelet Transform. We separate the incidence component and reflection component of the image by homomorphism decomposition, and then combine wavelet transform to enhance image as well as reserve details. The experimental result shows that the adaption and effect is obviously superior to MSRCR.

There are many color systems. Some systems are correspond to the human visual system, such as the Munsell color system. Other systems are formulated to ease data processing in machines, such as RGB color space. At first, Munsell color system is introduced in this paper. Next, RGB color system and hue-saturation-intensity (HSI) color system which is derived from RGB color systems are reviewed. HSI color system is important, because HSI color system is closely related to Munsell color system. We introduce the advantage and drawbacks of the conventional HSI color space. Furthermore, the improved HSI color system is introduced. The second half of this paper, we introduce a lot of color image enhancement methods based on the histogram equalization or the differential histogram equalization. Since hue preserving is necessary for color image processing, intensity processing methods by using both intensity and saturation in HSI color space are reviewed. Finally, hue preserving color image enhancement methods in RGB color system are explained.

This paper proposes an improved color image enhancement algorithm based on 3-D color histogram equalization algorithm. When the existed 3-D color histogram equalization algorithms in the literatures are applied in processing dim color images, the processed color images often turn pale due to the decrease of color-saturations and have false contours due to gray-scale merging phenomenon in the histogram equalization algorithm. In this paper, the proposed algorithm can make more pixels of the processed color images keep their color-saturations and reduce the gray-scale merging with Logarithmic histogram equalization algorithm. Test results with dim color images present a better effect of image enhancement.
