ABSTRACT

 To improve the perception, underwater images are post processed to enhance the quality of
image.
 Three algorithms:
●denoising
●homomorphic
●anisotropic
 Threshold with Modified BayesShrink function
 The algorithms were coded in MATLAB
 GUI is developed in MATLAB to showcase the processed image after every step

EXSISTING SYSTEM

 Underwater image concern on two techniques:

image restoration and enhancement
 There are many kinds of underwater image enhancement algorithms were
proposed.
 Commonly used methods were: histogram equalization, wavelet transform and
retinex algorithms
 Classic algorithms were developed and used
 Machine learning, deep learning has been applied to enhancement of
underwater image

DISADVANTAGE:

 Every algorithms has disadvantages

 Underwater images were not get clearly.

To Overcome:
Fusion algorithm

PROPOSED SYSTEM

 In this proposed system dehazing and denoising has to perform together is

called fusion technique using water shield filter.
 In this proposed system we can uses single image at same Time.
 COMPREHENSIVE EQUALIZATION METHOD
 HISTOGRAM ANALYSIS BASED ON GREY BALANCING
 HISTOGRAM ANALYSIS BASED ON CONTRAST ENRICHMENT
Advantage:
Clear and high resolution images.

CONCLUSION

 wavelet based image denoising technique is used for removing additive noise in the underwater
images.

 homomorphic filtering is used to correct non-uniform illumination of light.

 anisotropic filtering is used to smooth the image in homogeneous area but preserve image features
and enhance them.

 Finally, applying wavelet denoising technique to denoise the image.

 The whole of the algorithm used in this project is to be coded in MATLAB. A GUI is to be developed
in MATLAB to showcase the processed image after every step.
