Abstract
In this work we propose a framework for image processing in a visual response space, in which contrast values directly correlate with their visibility in an image. Our framework involves a transformation of an image from luminance space to a pyramid of low-pass contrast images and then to the visual response space. After modifying response values, the transformation can be reversed to produce the resulting image. To predict the visibility of suprathreshold contrast, we derive a transducer function for the full range of contrast levels that can be found in High Dynamic Range images. We show that a complex contrast compression operation, which preserves textures of small contrast, is reduced to a linear scaling in the proposed visual response space.
