No-reference Assessment of the Generalized Contrast of Complex Monochrome Images

The problem of no-reference measurement of generalized (full integral) contrast of complex (multi-element) monochrome images for objective assessment of their quality is considered in this paper. Different approaches to the quantitative assessment of the generalized contrast of a complex monochrome image on the basis of an analysis of the contrast values of image elements relative to a preset level of adaptation are considered. The task of measuring the contrast of image elements (objects and background) for a preset adaptation level is solved.
