Abstract

Image enhancement is the preprocessing task in digital image processing. It helps to improve the appearance or perception of the image so that the image can be used for analytics and human visual system. Image enhancement techniques lie in three broad categories—spatial domain, frequency domain, and fuzzy domain-based enhancement. A lot of work has been done on image enhancement. Most of the work has been done/performed on grayscale image. This paper concentrates on image enhancement using fuzzy logic approach and gives an insight into previous research work and future perspectives.
