About

pfstmo is a library of the state-of-the-art tone mapping operators, incorporated into pfstools. It provides an implementation of tone mapping operators suitable for convenient processing of both static images and video.

The package currently contains the following operators:

• Adaptive logarithmic tone mapping operator, based on
  Drago, F., Myszkowski, K., Annen, T., Chiba, N. (2003). Adaptive Logarithmic Mapping For Displaying High Contrast Scenes. Computer Graphics Forum, 22(3), 419–426. doi:10.1111/1467-8659.00689
• Fast bilateral filtering tone mapping operator, based on
  Durand, F., and Dorsey, J. (2002). Fast bilateral filtering for the display of high-dynamic-range images. ACM Transactions on Graphics, 21(3), 257–266. doi:10.1145/566654.566574
• Gradient domain tone mapping operator, based on
  Fattal, R., Lischinski, D., & Werman, M. (2002). Gradient domain high dynamic range compression. ACM Transactions on Graphics, 21(3), 249. doi:10.1145/566654.566573
• Contrast domain tone mapping operator, based on
  Mantiuk, R., Myszkowski, K., & Seidel, H. (2006). A perceptual framework for contrast processing of high dynamic range images. ACM Transactions on Applied Perception (TAP), 3(3), 286–308. doi:10.1145/1166087.1166095
• Display adaptive tone mapping, based on
  Mantiuk, R., Daly, S., & Kerofsky, L. (2008). Display adaptive tone mapping. ACM Transactions on Graphics (Proc. of SIGGRAPH), 27(3), 68. doi:10.1145/1360612.1360667
• Time-dependent visual adaptation tone mapping operator, based on
  Pattanaik, S. N., Tumblin, J., Yee, H., & Greenberg, D. P. (2000). Time-dependent visual adaptation for fast realistic image display. ACM Transactions on Graphics, 47–54. doi:10.1145/344779.344810
• Photographic tone mapping operator, based on
  Reinhard, E., Stark, M., Shirley, P., & Ferwerda, J. (2002). Photographic tone reproduction for digital images. ACM Transactions on Graphics. doi:10.1145/566570.566575 and author's original code
• Photoreceptor tone mapping operator, based on
  Reinhard, E., & Devlin, K. (2005). Dynamic range reduction inspired by photoreceptor physiology. IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics, 11(1), 13–24. doi:10.1109/TVCG.2005.9
• Tone mapping for backward-comparible image compression, based on
  Mai, Z., Mansour, H., Mantiuk, R., Nasiopoulos, P., Ward, R., and Heidrich, W. (2011). Optimizing a tone curve for backward-compatible high dynamic range image and video compression. IEEE Transactions on Image Processing, 20(6), 1558 – 1571. doi:10.1109/TIP.2010.2095866
• Visual adaptation tone mapping, based on
  Ferradans, S., Bertalmio, M., Provenzi, E., and Caselles, V. (2011). An Analysis of Visual Adaptation and Contrast Perception for Tone Mapping. IEEE transactions on pattern analysis and machine intelligence, 33(10), 2002–2012. doi:10.1109/TPAMI.2011.46
