Abstract: 
We analyses the use of moving rank transformations for local contrast enhancement of images. Weighted moving rank transformation are shown to need an exactly determined contrast of pixels. We propose a generalized linear f-equalization based on the weighted moving rank transformations with pixel classification by object characteristics. The equalization provides an efficient control over the enhancement of local contrasts of images
