Abstract

Maintaining brightness and preserving image contrast can be challenging when tone mapping wide dynamic range (WDR) images. In this paper, we present a novel tone mapping algorithm for compressing of WDR images. The algorithm processes WDR images in different scales. The overall brightness consistency and fine details are well preserved in large and small scales, respectively. A fusion method based on a multi-scale guided image filter is also proposed to synthesize all scales to generate the final image. Integral image and integral histogram are utilized in this algorithm which greatly reduces computation complexity and processing time. Experimental results show that our algorithm can produce visually appealing images with good brightness and high local contrast.
