Image-Enhancement

C++ implementation of several image contrast enhancement techniques for clinical and normal images.

Techniques

Requirements

  • Cmake
  • OpenCV-3.4.6+
  • Dlib-19.18+
  • SuperLU-5.2.1+
  • Armadillo-9.800.3+
    • Before install Armadillo, SuperLU 5 must be installed.

Usage

cd Image-Enhancement
cmake .
make
./main <input_image>
