As a preliminary presentation, let's start with a visual example. We propose to apply the filter on a low quality color jpeg image with backlight problems. Here is the considered input.

Below, a second retina foveal model output applied on the entire image with a parameters setup focused on naturalness perception. Here contours are enforced, luminance is corrected but halos are avoided with this configuration. The backlight effect is corrected and highlight details are still preserved. Then, even on a low quality jpeg image, if some luminance information remains, the retina is able to reconstruct a proper visual signal. Such configuration is also usefull for High Dynamic Range (*HDR*) images compression to 8bit images as discussed in [benoit2010]_ and in the demonstration codes discussed below.

The retina can be settled up with various parameters, by default, as shown on the figure above, the retina strongly reduces mean luminance energy and enforces all details of the visual scene. Luminance energy and halo effects can be modulated (exagerated to cancelled as shown on the two examples). In order to use your own parameters, you can use at least one time the *write(String fs)* method which will write a proper XML file with all default parameters. Then, tweak it on your own and reload them at any time using method *setup(String fs)*. These methods update a *Retina::RetinaParameters* member structure that is described hereafter. XML parameters file samples are shown at the end of the page.
