Abstract: A niche chaotic mutation particle swarm optimization (NCPSO) algorithm is proposed to overcome the problem of loss details of images, the contrast is not obvious and poor adaptability in traditional image enhancement methods. In this algorithm, niching methods and elimination strategy are introduced to improve the global optimization ability. Mutative scale chaos mutation algorithm has refined local traversal search performance, which makes the algorithm has higher searching precision. The results indicate that image enhancement based on the algorithm has such advantage as image detail clearly, strong contrast and excellent versatility.
