Analysis of Contrast Stretching Using Neural Hammington Distance Method

Image Enhancement is the process to sharpen the features of an image, so that result is more suitable than original image for specific applications. The enhancement method increases the predetermined range of the selected feature so that it can be detected easily instead of only increment in the inherent range of that particular feature. The report will provide an overview of techniques commonly used for image enhancement. The report focuses on the contrast stretching technique by using Neural Hammington Distance Method. The proposed method is an algorithm which reads image pixels and after some manipulations image will get stretched with better result. The images which are dull and have low grey levels are being stretched and made clearer by using this technique for they will become easier for further processing.
