Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses are disclosed herein for performing tone mapping and/or contrast enhancement. In some examples, a block mapping curve is low-pass filtered with block mapping curves of surrounding blocks to form a smoothed block mapping curve. In some examples, overlapped curve mapping of block mapping curves, including smoothed block mapping curves, is performed, including weighting, based on a pixel location, block mapping curves of a group of blocks to generate an interpolated block mapping curve and applying the interpolated block mapping curve to a pixel to perform ton mapping and/or contrast enhancement.
