Abstract:
Tone mapping is applied to pixels of a digital image. A luminance value of a pixel is determined based on whether one or more pixel intensity values of a pixel in a color space are within a pixel saturation range. A pixel gain is determined based on the determined luminance value of the pixel, and the determined pixel gain is applied to the pixel. The luminance value may also or instead be determined based on whether one or more of the pixel intensity values is within a pixel black-out range. A weight may be employed to determine the luminance value.
