  Abstract

In this paper, we present a perception-based tone mapping technique using histogram modification for displaying high dynamic range image. HDR (high dynamic range) tone mapping algorithms are used to display HDR image on LDR (low dynamic rnage) devices. Although perception-based tone mapping methods provides better performance, it dose not always produce good results for a wide variety of images. The proposed method reduces dynamic range by using the perception-based tone mapping function and histogram modification. A derivative of perception-based tone mapping function is used as constraint function of histogram and additional compensation process is performed. This method not only improves contrast by adopting different constraints on each pixel value, but also preserves more visual details. In order to prevent over enhancement, histogram modification technique is applied. Furthermore, it can control the rate of image contrast using control parameters. Subjective and objective evaluations show that proposed algorithm is better than existing algorithms.
