摘要

针对无人船自主航行过程中因光照不均匀及感知图像纹理模糊而导致的特征点匹配失败问题,本文提出了一种自适应校正与特征增强图像预处理算法。首先使用了非锐化掩蔽,起到了增强图像细节的效果,随后通过多尺度高斯卷积在亮度通道提取光照分量,并使用了二维伽马校正起到了均匀化亮度的效果,对色调通道使用了高斯滤波,起到了抑制低通噪声的效果,最后使用了直方图均匀化算法,起到了提升图像对比度的效果。相比于MSR算法、MSRCR算法和SSR算法,本文算法平均梯度最多分别提高了50.55%、151.21%和43.68%,特征匹配准确度最多分别提升了86.81%、176.08%和61.96%。本研究成果为无人船自主航行中的视觉感知图像提供了预处理技术,提升了图像质量,具有一定的应用价值。

Abstract

This paper proposes an adaptive correction and feature enhancement image preprocessing algorithm to address the problem of feature point matching failure caused by uneven lighting and blurry perceived image texture during autonomous navigation of unmanned ships. Firstly, Unsharp Masking was used to enhance image details. Then, multi-scale Gaussian convolution was used to extract lighting components in the brightness channel, and two-dimensional gamma correction was used to homogenize brightness. Gaussian filtering was applied to the tone channel to suppress low-pass noise. Finally, histogram homogenization algorithm was used to improve image contrast. Compared with the MSR algorithm, MSRCR algorithm, and SSR algorithm, the average gradient of this algorithm has increased by up to 50.55%, 151.21%, and 43.68% respectively, and the feature matching accuracy has increased by up to 86.81%, 176.08%, and 61.96% respectively. This research provides preprocessing techniques for visual perception images in autonomous navigation of unmanned ships, improving image quality and having certain application value.
