A Comprehensive Study of Underwater Image Enhancement Techniques
Keywords:
Blurring, Enhancement, Histogram Distribution, DenoisingAbstract
Low contrast, blurring details, colour deviations, non-uniform lighting, and other quality issues are common in underwater images. The enhancement of underwater images is a critical problem in image processing and computer vision for a variety of practical applications. Underwater enhancement has attracted a growing amount of research effort over the last few decades. However, a thorough and in-depth survey of related accomplishments and improvements is still lacking, especially a survey of underwater image datasets, which is a key issue in underwater image processing and intelligent applications. To promote a thorough understanding of underwater image enhancement, this paper examines the contributions and shortcomings of current approaches.
