Low-contrast or uneven illumination in real-world images will cause a loss of details and increase the difficulty of pattern recognition. An automatic image illumination perception and adaptive correction algorithm, termed as GLAGC, is proposed in this paper. Based on Retinex theory, the illumination of an image is extracted through the discrete wavelet transform. Two features that characterize the image illuminance are creatively designed. The first feature is the spatial luminance distribution feature, which is applied to the adaptive gamma correction of local uneven lighting. The other feature is the global statistical luminance feature. Through a training set containing images with various illuminance conditions, the relationship between the image exposure level and the feature is estimated under the maximum entropy criterion. It is used to perform adaptive gamma correction on global low illumination. Moreover, smoothness preservation is performed in the high-frequency subband to preserve edge smoothness. To eliminate low-illumination noise after wavelet reconstruction, the adaptive stabilization factor is derived. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm. By comparison, the proposed method yields comparable or better results than the state-of-art methods in terms of efficiency and quality.
