1. A method comprising:
- adjusting a low frequency value for a pixel value by a desired gain;
calculating a first high frequency value for the pixel value;
generating a second high frequency value as the first high frequency value adjusted by a factor, wherein the factor is a function of the first high frequency value and the desired gain; and
outputting a modified pixel value as the adjusted low frequency value augmented by the second high frequency value.

Abstract
A low frequency value for a pixel value is adjusted by a desired gain. A first high frequency value for the pixel value is calculated. A second high frequency value is generated for the first high frequency value. The second high frequency value is the first high frequency value adjusted by a factor. The factor is resolved as a function of the first high frequency value and the desired gain. A modified value for the pixel value is outputted, where the modified value is the adjusted low frequency value augmented by the second high frequency value.

11. A method comprising:
-
receiving a desired gain for processing an image or portion of the image;
iterating each pixel of the image or the portion of the image by;
adjusting a low frequency value for each pixel;
determining a high frequency value for each pixel;
modifying the high frequency value by a factor; and
saving a modified pixel for each pixel that is represented by the adjusted low frequency value added to the modified high frequency value; and
outputting a modified version of the image or portion of the image as a collection of the saved modified pixels. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 21, 22)
