Abstract

Methods and apparatuses for adjusting a global dynamic range of an image are described. An image is decomposed into (i) a low spatial frequency component and (ii) a high spatial frequency component. The global dynamic range of the low spatial frequency component is adjusted to produce an adjusted low spatial frequency component. The image is reconstructed with (i) the adjusted low spatial frequency component and (ii) the high spatial frequency component to thereby produce a processed image.
