[SIP-devel] I need some tips on how to equailze an indexed image

[Zhang C. <ch...@ma...>]

Hi, guys!

    Because I'm unable to locate the bug which causes mogrify() crash, I 
decide to write a new set of functions to replace mogrify(). I've 
written a function called histeq() to equalize a grayscale image, and 
now I want to write some codes to handle with indexed image(color 
image), but I don't know how to do that. I read Matlab's source code and 
manual of histeq(), but I'm still confused. I know I should convert RGB 
colormap to YIQ colormap, and equalize component Y, but I don't know 
what should I do to adjust I and Q. Could you give me some tips or some URL?

Hi Zhang Cheng,

My understanding: There are many ways to equalize
a colour image. I suspect if you are converting to
YIQ colourspace then you may just want to equalize the
Y (intensity) component. I have also seen equalization
taking place over each R, G and B components. 

I suspect Ricardo would know much more about this
than I.

cheers,

Angus

I've been  busy,
Sorry guys...

I will invest my time in trying to find that mogrify bug.
It will be a major effort to rewrite mogrify's functions,

good luck anyways, sorry again for not being able to help, but keep it up

Hi,

While browsing the scilab contributions website I noticed
a new 'toolbox' in the image tools section--Scilab and
Image Processing Toolbox:

http://sivp.sourceforge.net/

it seems to be quite active and 'new'.


cheers,

Angus

Yes,

I contacted the guys and they may merge their project with SIP in the
future. Basically a good feature of their toolbox is the ability to
deal with integer images, and they use Intel's OpenCV as a backend.

Yes, they seem to be quite active recently. We'll have a fruitful
exchange with them (even though they're not working directly together
with us).

I've understood how to equalize an indexed image after analyzing the 
relationship between RGB and YIQ colorspace. And now the equalized 
result is as same as that in Matlab. My next step is to write a robust 
interface which can equalize the grayscale and indexed images and its 
document.
    I've read the source code of equalize function implemented by 
ImageMagick. Its method is to equalize the R,G,B channels respectively, 
the equalized result in this way contains many extra colors which 
degrade the quality of image. I'll report the bug to ImageMagick.

Thank you for your enthusiastic responses!
