Abstract:-Contrast image enhancement is better to enhance the visibility of an image and color reproduction. To improve the quality of low contrast color images by fuzzy logic. This paper has evaluated the performance of brightness level based on contrast Image enhancement technique. To overcome the problem of over enhance, the contrast enhancement has represented the new method of fuzzy set and fuzzy membership. The proposed work introduces the newest approach could have the ability to boost the contrast in digital images in efficient manner by utilizing the modified edge preserving smoothing hypothesis based fuzzy image enhancement algorithm. As edge preserving smoothing is ability to reduce the effects of noise and it preserves the edges in efficient manner so provides better results. Additionally the proposed technique is used color normalization based on gray world hypothesis to reduce the color artifacts.

INTRODUCTION
Fuzzy image processing is used the collection of all approaches fuzzy sets and process of images segments. The key power of fuzzy image processing is at the center step modification of membership values. the data are transformed from gray level plane to the membership plane as fuzzification image then appropriate fuzzy techniques modification of an image membership values. Image enhancement is method used to improve the overall quality of the degraded images can be achieved by using enhancement methods Image Enhancement is essentially a simplest and attractive area. Contrast image enhancement is method used to enhance the overall superiority of the corrupted images can be attained by using enhancement mechanisms. Scale is a graphical illustration the distribution of data an image. It shows that how many times a particular grey level appears in an image.Brightness means that is effective or impressible technique for the images. Contrast enhanced images may contain intensity distortion and lose image information in various regions. However it is mostly fuzzy equalization produces unrealistic effects in photographs, often the same class of images to which one color.

METHODOLOGY
-
Convert RGB input image into HSV
The first step in the proposed method is to convert the given RGB image into HSV and then calculate the histogram h(x). The new fuzzy enhancement method uses HSV color space.
-
Enhance only V Components
The V component is stretched by preserving the chromatic information such as Hue (H) and Saturation (S). The Enhance method is meant exclusively for enhancing low contrast and low bright color images. Stretching method uses two intensification parameters K and M which controls the degree at which the intensity value x has to be intensified.

Image contrast using Fuzzy Based image enhancement Method
The proposed fuzzy enhancement method is required small changes to process low value of membership and demands more changes require high value of membership and new feature added to improve the visibility of digital images. Fuzzy membership values are used in image enhancement by utilizing the techniques.

PROPOSED ALGORITHM
The proposed algorithm is to supply better results than exiting algorithm as following steps:
Input image (x,y)
Covert RGB to HSV
Evaluate fuzzy membership function
Apply fuzzy image enhancement
Concatenate H, S &enhanced V
HSV to RGB conversion
Apply edge preserving smoothing
Apply grayscale
Output image
Figure 3.1: Flow chart proposed algorithm.
Step1: In step1 image is passed to the sand some pre-processing operation is applied on it.
Step 2: In the step2 image is converted in HSV plane. Step 3: As H and S component stay constant but V is the only factor which the need some alteration on for image while enhancing the images.
Step 4: Now Fuzzy membership function for image enhancement will be evaluated.
Step 5: Now fuzzy based image enhancement is applied on the image.
Step 6: Now concatenate H, S, and enhanced V component. Step 7: Now re-convert given image to HSV to RGB again. Step 8: Now apply technique edge preserving smoothing.
Step 9: Now apply color grayscale based upon the gray edge hypothesis.
Step 10: Display the final enhanced image.

D. Measure of Entropy (ME)
The entropy is calculated by using Shannon's entropy theorem.The entropy is high it is clear that the image has high contrast. The histogram is distributed on lower intensity region then image entropy becomes high and uniformly histogram is distributed the intensity region high.

CONCLUSION
In the proposed technique, contrast image enhancement has been successfully used for improving the quality of poor image by using the various linear and non-linear techniques. The proposed algorithm offers a wide variety of approaches for modifying images to achieve the visually acceptable images. The proposed method has modified fuzzy logic enhance, gradient fuzzy, grayscale and the brightness level .Here this method has the ability to boost the contrast in digital images in efficient manner by utilizing the modified edge preserving smoothing hypothesis and color normalization based fuzzy image enhancement algorithm. The fuzzy enhancement improves the contrast of low contrast images and low bright color images.
In near future, swarm intelligence can be applied on this algorithm to enhance the results and to balance the contrast level in both low contrast and over contrast color images.
