HDR imaging
=============
.. highlight:: cpp
This section describes high dynamic range imaging algorithms namely tonemapping, exposure alignment, camera calibration with multiple exposures and exposure fusion.
Tonemap
---------------------------
.. ocv:class:: Tonemap : public Algorithm
Base class for tonemapping algorithms - tools that are used to map HDR image to 8-bit range.
Tonemap::process
---------------------------
Tonemaps image
.. ocv:function:: void Tonemap::process(InputArray src, OutputArray dst)
:param src: source image - 32-bit 3-channel Mat
:param dst: destination image - 32-bit 3-channel Mat with values in [0, 1] range
createTonemap
---------------------------
Creates simple linear mapper with gamma correction
.. ocv:function:: Ptr<Tonemap> createTonemap(float gamma = 1.0f)
:param gamma: positive value for gamma correction. Gamma value of 1.0 implies no correction, gamma equal to 2.2f is suitable for most displays.
Generally gamma > 1 brightens the image and gamma < 1 darkens it.
TonemapDrago
---------------------------
.. ocv:class:: TonemapDrago : public Tonemap
Adaptive logarithmic mapping is a fast global tonemapping algorithm that scales the image in logarithmic domain.
Since it's a global operator the same function is applied to all the pixels, it is controlled by the bias parameter.
Optional saturation enhancement is possible as described in [FL02]_.
For more information see [DM03]_.
createTonemapDrago
---------------------------
Creates TonemapDrago object
.. ocv:function:: Ptr<TonemapDrago> createTonemapDrago(float gamma = 1.0f, float saturation = 1.0f, float bias = 0.85f)
:param gamma: gamma value for gamma correction. See :ocv:func:`createTonemap`
:param saturation: positive saturation enhancement value. 1.0 preserves saturation, values greater than 1 increase saturation and values less than 1 decrease it.
:param bias: value for bias function in [0, 1] range. Values from 0.7 to 0.9 usually give best results, default value is 0.85.
TonemapDurand
---------------------------
.. ocv:class:: TonemapDurand : public Tonemap
This algorithm decomposes image into two layers: base layer and detail layer using bilateral filter and compresses contrast of the base layer thus preserving all the details.
This implementation uses regular bilateral filter from opencv.
Saturation enhancement is possible as in ocv:class:`TonemapDrago`.
For more information see [DD02]_.
createTonemapDurand
---------------------------
Creates TonemapDurand object
.. ocv:function:: Ptr<TonemapDurand> createTonemapDurand(float gamma = 1.0f, float contrast = 4.0f, float saturation = 1.0f, float sigma_space = 2.0f, float sigma_color = 2.0f)
:param gamma: gamma value for gamma correction. See :ocv:func:`createTonemap`
:param contrast: resulting contrast on logarithmic scale, i. e. log(max / min), where max and min are maximum and minimum luminance values of the resulting image.
:param saturation: saturation enhancement value. See :ocv:func:`createTonemapDrago`
:param sigma_space: bilateral filter sigma in color space
:param sigma_color: bilateral filter sigma in coordinate space
TonemapReinhard
---------------------------
.. ocv:class:: TonemapReinhard : public Tonemap
This is a global tonemapping operator that models human visual system.

For more information see [RD05]_.

.. ocv:function:: Ptr<TonemapReinhard> createTonemapReinhard(float gamma = 1.0f, float intensity = 0.0f, float light_adapt = 1.0f, float color_adapt = 0.0f)
:param gamma: gamma value for gamma correction. See :ocv:func:`createTonemap`
:param intensity: result intensity in [-8, 8] range. Greater intensity produces brighter results.
:param light_adapt: light adaptation in [0, 1] range. If 1 adaptation is based only on pixel value, if 0 it's global, otherwise it's a weighted mean of this two cases.
:param color_adapt: chromatic adaptation in [0, 1] range. If 1 channels are treated independently, if 0 adaptation level is the same for each channel.
TonemapMantiuk
---------------------------
.. ocv:class:: TonemapMantiuk : public Tonemap
This algorithm transforms image to contrast using gradients on all levels of gaussian pyramid, transforms contrast values to HVS response and scales the response.
After this the image is reconstructed from new contrast values.
For more information see [MM06]_.
createTonemapMantiuk
---------------------------
Creates TonemapMantiuk object
.. ocv:function:: Ptr<TonemapMantiuk> createTonemapMantiuk(float gamma = 1.0f, float scale = 0.7f, float saturation = 1.0f)
:param gamma: gamma value for gamma correction. See :ocv:func:`createTonemap`
:param scale: contrast scale factor. HVS response is multiplied by this parameter, thus compressing dynamic range. Values from 0.6 to 0.9 produce best results.
:param saturation: saturation enhancement value. See :ocv:func:`createTonemapDrago`
