摘要

摘要: 针对现有红外图像增强算法存在信噪比低、细节模糊、清晰度差等问题，本文提出基于改进小波阈值函数和全尺度Retinex的红外图像融合增强算法。首先，为克服尺度参数固定和光线散射导致红外图像退化的问题，利用大气透射率得到Retinex尺度参数的全尺度映射图，从而有效提高图像的清晰度，并将输入图像和使用全尺度Retinex处理后的输入图像作为算法的第一个输入和第二个输入。其次，为解决传统小波阈值函数在图像降噪过程中存在伪影、细节丢失等问题，设计改进小波阈值函数，通过引入尺度因子，在计算每层高频子图小波系数后，能根据该层数自适应调整尺度因子，并引入调节因子，结合指数函数，使该函数不仅能抑制高频子图噪声，还能极大程度保留细节信息。然后，使用小波图像融合的方式融合输入的高频子图和低频子图，进一步提高输出图像的纹理细节。主客观仿真结果表明，所提算法比其它对比算法具有更好的降噪和细节突出能力，并能提高红外图像的人眼视觉效果。最后，本文算法应用于红外成像模块采集的红外图像增强，效果良好，表明本文方法具有实用性。

Abstract: This paper proposes an infrared image fusion enhancement algorithm based on an improved wavelet threshold function and full-scale Retinex to address the problems of low signal-to-noise ratio, fuzzy detail, and poor clarity in existing infrared image enhancement algorithms. First, to overcome the degradation of infrared images caused by fixed-scale parameters and light scattering, a full-scale map of Retinex-scale parameters was obtained using atmospheric transmittance to improve image clarity. The input image and processed image with full-scale Retinex were used as the first and second inputs of the algorithm, respectively. Second, an improved wavelet threshold function was designed to solve the problems of artifacts and detail loss in the image-denoising process of the traditional wavelet threshold function. The threshold function introduces a scaling factor that can be adjusted adaptively according to the number of layers after calculating the wavelet coefficient of the high-frequency subgraph of each layer. An adjustment factor was introduced and combined with an exponential function to suppress the high-frequency subgraph noise and preserve detailed information. The high- and low-frequency subgraphs of the above two inputs were then fused using wavelet image fusion to improve the texture details of the output images. The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm outperforms other comparison algorithms regarding noise reduction and detail highlighting capabilities, enhancing the visual quality of infrared images for the human eye. Finally, this algorithm was applied to enhance infrared images collected by an infrared imaging module, and the experimental results showed that the proposed method is practical.
