Abstract EN
Image enhancement techniques are very important to image processing, which are used to improve image quality or extract the fine details in degraded images.
In this paper, two novel objective functions based on the normalized incomplete Beta transform function are proposed to evaluate the effectiveness of grayscale image enhancement and color image enhancement, respectively.
Using these objective functions, the parameters of transform functions are estimated by the quantum-behaved particle swarm optimization (QPSO).
We also propose an improved QPSO with an adaptive parameter control strategy.
The QPSO and the AQPSO algorithms, along with genetic algorithm (GA) and particle swarm optimization (PSO), are tested on several benchmark grayscale and color images.
The results show that the QPSO and AQPSO perform better than GA and PSO for the enhancement of these images, and the AQPSO has some advantages over QPSO due to its adaptive parameter control strategy.
