Main Article Content

Abstract

The realm of image processing is characterized by the judicious application of mathematical operations to facilitate image transformation and refinement. By synergizing signal processing techniques, image processing can culminate in an enhanced image or the extraction of salient parameters. This research concentrates on ameliorating the contrast of images beset by low contrast, concomitantly extracting relevant image parameters. Images with subpar contrast can engender flawed outcomes in myriad disciplines, highlighting the necessity of contrast enhancement. This study introduces an innovative image processing system, conducting a comparative analysis of General Histogram Equalization and Homomorphic Filtering. The results unequivocally demonstrate the superiority of Homomorphic Filtering. The system's output manifests pronounced efficiency in elevating image contrast, heralding far-reaching implications.
