Abstract :
Enhancing the contrast and projecting the edge is the two important functions of the lateral inhibition network. Some image details are lost when the infrared image is processed based on traditional lateral inhibition algorithm. A new method that the processed image is weightingly added to the original one is proposed. The algorithm can not only project the image edge, but also overcome the above-mentioned shortage. The simulation results show its effectivity.
