  • Tone-mapping method for reducing memory requirements
    Publication number: 20070153306
    Abstract: A tone-mapping method for reducing memory requirements is provided. If an input address is smaller than a first critical address, it is directly looked up in a tone-mapping table to correspond the input address to an actual output. If the input address is larger than the first critical address, it is then determined whether the input address is larger than a second critical address or not. If it is not larger than the second critical address, two adjacent sample addresses are taken to correspond the input address to an actual output. If the input address is larger than the second critical address, four adjacent sample addresses are taken to correspond the input address to an actual output.
