Digital image processing is at the base of everyday applications aiding humans in several
fields, such as underwater monitoring, analysis of cultural heritage drawings, and medical …

In vision science, cascades of Linear+ Nonlinear transforms are very successful in modeling
a number of perceptual experiences. However, the conventional literature is usually too …

Abstract High Dynamic Range (HDR) is the latest video format for display technology and
there is a strong industrial effort in deploying an HDR capable ecosystem in the near future …

Abstract System gamma is the end-to-end exponent that describes the relationship between
the relative luminance values at capture and the reproduced image. The system gamma …

The sensor values captured by a digital camera are transformed in a non-linear manner
prior to quantization in order to make the quantization rate approximately proportional to the …

Two main factors motivate the need for color in image processing. First, color is a strong
descriptor frequently simplifying the recognition and extraction of objects from a picture …

This work identifies the strong dominant features by its location and extracts the image
features for the purpose of automatic desire focusing on prominent structure and artistic …

Digital cameras apply a non-linearity to the captured sensor values prior to quantisation.
This process is known as perceptual linearisation and ensures that the quantisation rate is …

The system gamma of the imaging pipeline, defined as the product of the encoding and
decoding gammas, is typically greater than one and is stronger for images viewed with a …

High Dynamic Range (HDR) is the latest trend in television technology and we expect an in
ux of HDR capable consumer TVs in the market. Initial HDR consumer displays will operate …
