Low-light image restoration using bright channel prior-based variational Retinex model

Abstract This paper presents a low-light image restoration method based on the variational Retinex model using the bright channel prior (BCP) and total-variation minimization. The proposed method first estimates the bright channel to control the amount of brightness enhancement. Next, the variationa...
