1. A method for automatically calculating an image-specific correction curve for a subject image using a neural network, said method comprising:

  • receiving histogram data for a subject image;

    inputting said histogram data to a neural network that has been trained by a user adjusting a tone enhancement curve by manipulating the shape of said tone enhancement curve through a user input apparatus to produce a preferred output;

    generating a plurality of interpolation points for an image-specific correction curve with said neural network;

    determining said image-specific correction curve by performing interpolation using said plurality of said interpolation points; and

    outputting said image-specific correction curve.
