Abstract

Realistic display of high dynamic range images without introducing any artifact is a hard problem. In this paper we address this problem using a detail preserving local gain control approach. Unlike many other local gain control methods available in the literature, our method is simple, and does not introduce ugly "halo" artifacts around the high dynamic range edges. We demonstrate the usefulness of this method by showing several examples.
