  • Abstract
    Goal of proposed algorithm is to enhance images like the digital camera photos or, better. Some enhancement filters process too excessive that makes image look unnatural. The paper proposes an algorithm to represent obviously the detailed textures and sharpen the overall image based on perceptual approach. Then the sharpened images are merged by the edge information of original image. The experimental results show that the detailed textures can be easily observed. The whole image looks not only more sharp but also natural after applying our algorithm.
