Enhancement of dronogram aid to visual interpretation of target objects via intuitionistic fuzzy hesitant sets [PDF]
In this paper, we address the hesitant information in enhancement task often caused by differences in image contrast. Enhancement approaches generally use certain filters which generate artifacts or are unable to recover all the objects details in images.
