Image Enhancement Model Based on Fractional Time-Delay and Diffusion Tensor
Abstract
Image enhancement is one of the bases of image processing technology, which can enhance useful features and suppress useless information of images according to the specified task. In order to ensure coherent enhancement for images with oriented flow-like structures, we propose a nonlinear diffusion system model based on time-fractional delay. By combining the nonlinear isotropic diffusion equation with fractional time-delay regularization, we construct a structure tensor. Meanwhile, the introduction of source terms enhances the contrast of the image, making it effective for denoising images with high-level noise. Based on compactness principles, the existence of weak solutions for the model is proved by using the Galerkin method. In addition, various experimental results verify the enhancement ability of the proposed model.
