Digital image processing method for edge contrast enhancement using wavelet transform

摘要

A digital image processing method, includes the steps of: transforming the digital image using an edge sensitive wavelet transform to produce a plurality of wavelet coefficients at various resolutions and a residual image; modifying the wavelet coefficients as a function of the image gradient and its rate of change at a resolution corresponding to the respective wavelet coefficient; and inverse transforming the modified wavelet coefficients and the residual image to produce a processed digital image.
