Retinex algorithms for image enhancement

# Retinex

Retinex algorithms for image enhancement. They are specially useful to process images with uneven illumination.

Still a work in progress. Next, I want to implement other techniques for color correction.

## Installation

You may use pip to install retinex.

```bash
pip install retinex
```

## Usage

Here is an example of how to use MSRCR (multi-scale retinex with color correction).

```python
import skimage
from retinex import msrcr

img_original = skimage.io.imread("leaves.jpg")
img_msrcr = msrcr(img, sigmas=(25., 50., 100.,))

```

Check the `examples` folder for some more samples:
