Abstract

An image appearance model called iCAM06 was designed for high dynamic range (HDR) image rendering. The dynamic range of a HDR image needs to be mapped on that of output devices, which is called the tone compression or tone mapping. The iCAM06, the representative HDR rendering algorithm, also uses the tone compression for image reproduction on the low dynamic range of output devices. However the color saturation reduction occurs during its tone compression process. We propose the saturation correction method using the inverse compensation and recover the saturation reduction in the iCAM06. Experimental results show that the proposed method has better performance than the iCAM06 from the viewpoint of the saturation accuracy and rendering preference.
