Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a computer-implemented method for generating an enhanced image from an original image, the method including segmenting the original image into a segmented image using an artificial neural network; curve fitting the segmented image to determine boundary artifacts; removing the determined boundary artifacts to generate a smoothed boundary image; and generating the enhanced image from the original image and the smoothed boundary image. The image maybe enhanced further by correcting for glare and adding artificial light.
