Abstract

Gray level transformation is a significant part of image enhancement techniques which deal with images composed of pixels. The outcomes of this process can be either images or a set of representative characteristics. It effects is simple but complicated in its implementation. Recently much work is completed in the field of images enhancement with varying observable techniques. This paper describes how to enhance an image using different gray level techniques and a demonstration of its implementation. PPI Analyzer, a kind of software created to implement the various techniques is based on explosive phenomenon of MATLAB. The implemented program with interactive interface to allow for relaxed modification, presented encouraging results.
