Abstract
The contrast enhancement is an important part of the image enhancement process. The visual details become more visible in an image with a high level of contrast. There are more techniques to improve a contrast image. In this paper we analyze the contrast modification by three main methods: the histogram equalization method, local histogram equalization (LHE) method and contrast limited adaptive histogram equalization (CLAHE) method. The degree of contrast enhancement is measured using the root-mean-square (RMS) parameter.
