“…The use of ML has become integral to our daily lives. Several domains, such as transport and manufacturing have already proven their value, but now they are gaining popularity thanks to their excellent results in healthcare fields, like lung disease classification [6,7], body organ recognition by medical images [8], lung nodule detection [9], reconstruction of medical images [10], and segmentation of brain tumors [11,12]. To examine patients, the use of intelligent systems that are based on ML is increasing [13].…”

Contrast enhancement techniques serve the purpose of diminishing image noise and increasing the contrast of relevant structures. In the context of medical images, where the differentiation between normal and abnormal tissues can be quite subtle, precise interpretation might become challenging when noise levels are relatively elevated. The Fast Local Laplacian Filter (FLLF) is proposed to deliver a more precise interpretation and present a clearer image to the observer; this is achieved through the reduction of noise levels. In this study, the FLLF strengthened images through its unique contrast enhancement capabilities while preserving important image details. It achieved this by adapting to the image’s characteristics and selectively enhancing areas with low contrast, thereby improving the overall visual quality. Additionally, the FLLF excels in edge preservation, ensuring that fine details are retained and that edges remain sharp. Several performance metrics were employed to assess the effectiveness of the proposed technique. These metrics included Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR), Mean Squared Error (MSE), Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE), Normalization Coefficient (NC), and Correlation Coefficient. The results indicated that the proposed technique achieved a PSNR of 40.12, an MSE of 8.6982, an RMSE of 2.9492, an NC of 1.0893, and a Correlation Coefficient of 0.9999. The analysis highlights the superior performance of the proposed method when contrast enhancement is applied, especially when compared to existing techniques. This approach results in high-quality images with minimal information loss, ultimately aiding medical experts in making more accurate diagnoses.
