Enhancement of Underwater Imaging with the algorithm of the Advanced Multi-scale Retinex
Abstract
For the problem of the absorbing and scattering for Red in underwater imaging, the AMSR is put
awarded. The red information of the underwater imaging is read by Matlab. The image
enhancement used by Advanced Multi-scale Retinex algorithm. The Advanced Multi-scale
Retinex algorithm is with the truncation of k time’s standard deviation and the figure between
the parameter k and the sigma is made. The best k is got for the images of various depths and
the best k is between 1 to 1.5. The result shows that the AMSR is good method of enhancement
for underwater imaging.
