A two-dimensional gamma function-based color image correction method based on the illumination-reflection model and multi-scale theory is proposed. Firstly, the original image is histogram equalized, then converted to HSV color space, and the light components of the scene are extracted by multi-scale Gaussian function, and then the parameters of the 2D gamma function are adjusted by the distribution characteristics of the light components to construct a 2D gamma function to enhance the image. Finally, the images are fused. The comparison with the classical algorithm shows that the algorithm in this paper can better reduce the effect of uneven illumination on the image and improve the brightness and contrast of the image.
