Background:: Aiming at the problems of color distortion, low clarity and poor visibility of underwater image caused by complex underwater environment, a wavelet fusion method UIPWF for underwater image enhancement is proposed. Methods:: First of all, an improved NCB color balance method is designed to identify and cut the abnormal pixels, and balance the color of R, G and B channels by affine transformation. Then, the color correction map is converted to CIELab color space, and the L component is equalized with contrast limited adaptive histogram to obtain the brightness enhancement map. Finally, different fusion rules are designed for low-frequency and high-frequency components, the pixel level wavelet fusion of color balance image and brightness enhancement image is realized to improve the edge detail contrast on the basis of protecting the underwater image contour. Results:: The experiments demonstrate that compared with the existing underwater image processing methods, UIPWF is highly effective in the underwater image enhancement task, improves the objective indicators greatly, and produces visually pleasing enhancement images with clear edges and reasonable color information. Conclusion:: The UIPWF method can effectively mitigate the color distortion, improve the clarity and contrast, which is applicable for underwater image enhancement in different environments.

AbstractOne-dimensional particle-in-cell and Monte-Carlo (FLUKA) simulation methods were used together, in order to investigate the production of positrons in lead targets, illuminated by a short-pulse high-intensity laser. The study is focused on lead targets of 1 mm thickness and more and pulses of intensity in the range 1019–1022 W/cm2. The calculations provided an estimate of an absolute number of positrons and the ratio of electrons and positrons emerging from the target. The thickness of the target is scaled in order to find an optimal thickness that could provide a neutral electron-positron beam.
