Abstract: In recent years, fuzzy image enhancement methods have been widely applied in image enhancement, which generally consists of three steps: fuzzification, modify membership(using intensifier (INT) operator), and defuzzification. This paper proposed a new INT operator used in fuzzy image enhancement. The INT operator is adjustable for different test images. The image enhancement method is as follows, firstly, calculate the image threshold (T ) using the OTSU method. Secondly, calculate pivotal point p corresponding to T , and find the corresponding INT operator function. Finally, use the INT operator in fuzzy Image Enhancement. The INT operator is used multiple times in the image processing process to obtain multiple result images. Comparative experiments show that the proposed new INT operator has better image enhancement effect when INT operator is applied at the same number of times. On the other hand, more intermediate process result images can also be obtained through the proposed new INT operator. More result images can provide material resources for the subsequent image processing.
