Image enhancement techniques can be used to improve image visual appearance and analysis by accentuating features like edges and boundaries. There are several techniques including:
1. Point operations like contrast stretching and thresholding that modify pixel values.
2. Spatial operations like noise smoothing and sharpening that apply neighborhood pixel averaging or differencing.
3. Transform domain techniques like filtering in the frequency domain to accelerate operations like noise removal.
4. Edge enhancement methods like the pyramid approach that detects edges across multiple image scales to isolate significant edges.
