Abstract: A system and method for correcting pixel intensities for output on a video display is disclosed. In one embodiment, the method includes the operation of generating an interpolation table having a plurality of interpolation segment endpoints spaced over a transfer function correction curve. The plurality of interpolation segment end points are distributed logarithmically over the transfer function correction curve to increase a number of correction points along a curved portion of the transfer function correction curve without substantially increasing a total number of correction points over the entire curve. Correction values for a graphic display can be determined by interpolating between the logarithmically distributed interpolation segment endpoints.
