| Authors | Rasheed, M., Guo, G., Shi, D., Khan, H. and Cheng, X. |
| Abstract | A key part of interpreting, visualizing, and monitoring the surface conditions of remote-sensing images is enhancing the quality of low-light images. It aims to produce higher contrast, noise-suppressed, and better quality images from the low-light version. Recently, Retinex theory-based enhancement methods have gained a lot of attention because of their robustness. In this study, Retinex-based low-light enhancement methods are compared to other state-of-the-art low-light enhancement methods to determine their generalization ability and computational costs. Different commonly used test datasets covering different content and lighting conditions are used to compare the robustness of Retinex-based methods and other low-light enhancement techniques. Different evaluation metrics are used to compare the results, and an average ranking system is suggested to rank the enhancement methods. |
