ABSTRACT:
An image processing system redistributes image luminance values in an image represented in u'v'L* space to achieve a near-optimal fit of luminance data to available dynamic range and to enhance the shape and detail of the resultant image. Redistribution may be accomplished by passing the image through a filter having a peak response at a spatial frequency at which the human eye is highly sensitive, and then equalizing a cumulative histogram of filtered pixels. An image may be transformed to compensate for tone compression which accompanies printing processes.
