Abstract
Due to the inherent defects of infrared imaging systems and the influence of the external complex environment, infrared images have low contrast, blurred edge details, low signal-to-noise ratio and poor visual effects compared with visible images, which have a great impact on the subsequent feature extraction, detection and identification and target tracking, and cannot meet the requirements in military, medical and civilian fields. The current technical deficiencies of infrared imaging devices at the hardware level cannot fundamentally solve these problems, so it is especially necessary to enhance infrared images from the perspective of algorithms. We propose an improved fractional differentiation algorithm that enhances the contrast of infrared images and the contrast of the images is controlled by the fractional order. Experiments and analysis show that the proposed method has good feedback for enhancing the contrast of dark images, and it can effectively enhance the edge information and detail information.
