| Summary: | Existing algorithms for enhancing low-light images predominantly focus on the low-light region, which leads to over-enhancement of the glare region, and the high complexity of the algorithm makes it difficult to apply it to embedded devices. In this paper, a GS-AGC algorithm based on regional luminance perception is proposed. The indirect perception of the human eye’s luminance vision was taken into account. All similar luminance pixels that satisfied the luminance region were extracted, and adaptive adjustment processing was performed for the different luminance regions of low-light images. The proposed method was evaluated experimentally on real images, and objective evidence was provided to show that its processing effect surpasses that of other comparable methods. Furthermore, the potential practical value of GS-AGC was highlighted through its effective application in road pedestrian detection and face detection. The algorithm in this paper not only effectively suppressed glare but also achieved the effect of overall image quality enhancement. It can be easily combined with the embedded hardware FPGA for acceleration to improve real-time image processing.
