Abstract

Using gaze information in designing tone-mapping operatorshas many potentials over traditional global tone-mapping operators. Inthis paper, we evaluate a recently proposed real-time tone mapping operatorbased on gaze information and show that it is highly dependenton the input scene. We propose an important modification to the evaluatedmethod to relief this dependency and to enhance the appearance ofthe resultant images using smaller processing area. Experimental resultsshow that our method outperforms the evaluated technique.
