<h2>Mantiuk'08</h2>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>This operator
|
||
|
applies the display adaptive tone mapping, which attempts to
|
||
|
preserve contrast of an input (HDR) image as close as
|
||
|
possible given the characteristic of an output display. Use
|
||
|
this tone mapping operator if you want to preserve original
|
||
|
image appearance, or slightly enhance contrast while maintaining
|
||
|
the natural look of images. The
|
||
|
operator can also compensate for ambient light reflections
|
||
|
on a screen, and for varying dynamic range and brightness of
|
||
|
a display. The operator is suitable for video sequences as
|
||
|
it prevents high-frequency changes in tone-curve between
|
||
|
consecutive frames, which would result in flickering. Note
|
||
|
that the temporal filtering is always active and there is no
|
||
|
need to specify an argument to switch it on.</p>

<h3>OPTIONS</h3>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<DT><B>Color Saturation</B><DD>
|
||
|
<p>
|
||
|
Decrease or increase color saturation after tone mapping. Default
|
||
|
value <B>1</B> attempts to preserve color appearance of the original
|
||
|
image. Use values >1 to increase and <1 to decrease color saturation.
|
||
|
<DT><B>Contrast Enhancement</B><DD>
|
||
|
<p>
|
||
|
By default this tone-mapper attempts to preserve contrast of an input
|
||
|
image. This parameter controls whether the contrast of an
|
||
|
input image should be enhanced before tone-mapping. For example
|
||
|
<B>1.15</B> boosts contrast by 15%. Note that if a target display
|
||
|
does not offer sufficient dynamic range, contrast may be enhanced only
|
||
|
for selected tone-values (those that dominate in an image) or not
|
||
|
enhanced at all.
|
||
|
<DT><B>Luminance Level</B><DD>
|
||
|
<p>
|
||
|
Tells the
|
||
|
tone-mapper what luminance level in the input image should be mapped
|
||
|
to the maximum luminance of a display. Since HDR images contain only
|
||
|
relative luminance information, tone-mapper does not know how bright
|
||
|
should be the scene. This option is meant to fix this problem by
|
||
|
providing tone-mapper with the information what luminance level in an
|
||
|
input image should be perceived as a diffuse white surface. Default is
|
||
|
<I>none</I>, which means that no such mapping will be enforced and
|
||
|
tone-mapper is free to find an optimal brightness for a given
|
||
|
image. This is a recommended setting for HDR images.
