pfstmo_mantiuk08(1) General Commands Manual pfstmo_mantiuk08(1) NAME pfstmo_mantiuk08 - Display adaptive tone mapping SYNOPSIS pfstmo_mantiuk08 [--display-function <df-spec>] [--display-size=<size- spec>] [--color-saturation <float>] [--contrast-enhancement <float>] [--white-y=<float>] [--fps=<frames-per-second>] [--output-tone-curve=<file name>] [--verbose] [--help] DESCRIPTION This command applies the display adaptive tone mapping, which attempts to preserve contrast of an input (HDR) image as close as possible given the characteristic of an output display. Use this tone mapping operator if you want to preserve original image appearance, or slightly enhance contrast (-e option) while maintaining the natural look of images. The operator can also compensate for ambient light reflections on a screen, and for varying dynamic range and brightness of a display. The operator is suitable for video sequences as it prevents high-frequency changes in tone-curve between consecutive frames, which would result in flickering. Note that the tempo- ral filtering is always active and there is no need to specify an argument to switch it on. More details can be found in: Rafal Mantiuk, Scott Daly and Louis Kerofsky. Display Adaptive Tone Mapping. In: ACM Transactions on Graphics 27 (3), 2008. http://www.mpi-inf.mpg.de/resources/hdr/datmo/ If you find this TMO useful in your research project, please cite the paper above. This operator also employs color correction mechanism from: Radoslaw Mantiuk, Rafal Mantiuk, Anna Tomaszewska, Wolfgang Hei- drich. Color Correction for Tone Mapping. In: Computer Graphics Forum (Proc. of EUROGRAPHICS'09), 28(2), 2009. http://zgk.wi.ps.pl/color_correction/ The result of this TMO does not require gamma correction. OPTIONS --display-function <df-spec>, -d <df-spec> To adapt tone-mapping to different displays, this operator must be provided a display function. The display function describes how out- put luminance of a display changes with pixel values. If no parame- ter is given, the command assumes -df pd=lcd (see Pre-defined dis- play below). There are several ways to specify the display function: Gamma-gain-black-ambient display model g=<float>:l=<float>:b=<float>:k=<float>:a=<float>[:n=<float>] Gamma-gain-black-ambient model can approximate a range of displays and is a compact way to specify a display function. It assumes that a display function has the following form: L_d(I) = (l-b)*I^gamma + b + k/pi*a The parameters are as follows: g - gamma or exponent of a display function (default 2.2, usually from 1.8 to 2.8) l - peak luminance of a display in cd/m^2 (default 100, from 80 for CRTs to 500 or more for newer displays) b - black level, which is luminance of a black pixel when the dis- play is on (default 1, usually from 0.3 to 1 cd/m^2) k - reflectivity of a screen (assuming that it is diffuse) (default 0.01, usually about 0.01 (1%) for LCD displays, more for CRTs) a - ambient illumination in lux. Typical values are: 50 lux Family living room (dim, default) 400 luxA brightly lit office 32000 lux Sunlight on an average day (min.) 100000 lux Sunlight on an average day (max.) Pre-defined display pd=<display_type> Use pre-defined display type. This options are for convenience only and they do not mean to accurately model the response of a particu- lar display. The following display types are recognized: lcd_office (g=2.2, l=100, b=0.8, k=0.01, a=400 ) lcd set to "office" mode seen in bright environment lcd (g=2.2, l=200, b=0.8, k=0.01, a=60 ) typical lcd seen in dim environment (default) lcd_bright (g=2.6, l=500, b=0.5, k=0.01, a=10 ) newer LCD TV seen in dark environment crt (g=2.2, l=80, b=1, k=0.02, a=60 ) CRT monitor seen in dim environment The parameters in the parenthesis are the same as for the gamma- gain-black-ambient model explained above. Lookup-table lut=<file> This is the most accurate specification of the display response function, but requires measuring it with a luminance meter. The lookup table should account also for ambient light, so that it is recommended to use the luminance meter that can measure screen lumi- nance from a distance, such as Minolta LS-100 (as opposed to those that use rubber tube touching a display that eliminates the influ- ence of ambient light). The <file> must be a comma-separated text file in a format (CSV) with two columns: first column represents pixel values (from 0.0 to 1.0) and the second physical luminance in cd/m^2. Both the pixel value and the luminance should increase in each raw. --display-size=<size-spec>, -s=<size_spec> Specifies how large the image appears to a viewer and what is the viewing distance. If no parameter is given, -s ppd=30 is assumed. Since this tone-mapper is global, display size has moderate effect on the resulting images and thus skipping this parameter should not do much harm. There are two ways to specify image size: vres=<lines>:vd=<screen_heights>[:d=<meters>] vres - screen's vertical resolution in lines, for example 1024. vd - viewing distance specified as multiplies of screen height. For example if the display is seen from 0.5m and the height of its screen is 25cm, vd=2. d - (optional) viewing distance in meters. This is to account for lower eye's sensitivity for larger viewing distances (although the effect is negligible). By de- fault -d=0.5 is assumed. ppd=<pixels_per_visual_degree>[:d=<meters>] ppd - how many pixels spans one visual degree. d - (optional) viewing distance in meters. This is to account for lower eye's sensitivity for larger viewing distances (although the effect is negligible). By de- fault -d=0.5 is assumed. --color-saturation <float>, -c <float> Decrease or increase color saturation after tone mapping. Default value -c=1 attempts to preserve color appearance of the original im- age. Use values >1 to increase and <1 to decrease color saturation. --contrast-enhancement <float>, -e <float> By default this tone-mapper attempts to preserve contrast of an in- put image (-e=1). This parameter controls whether the contrast of an input image should be enhanced before tone-mapping. For example -e=1.15 boosts contrast by 15%. Note that if a target display does not offer sufficient dynamic range, contrast may be enhanced only for selected tone-values (those that dominate in an image) or not enhanced at all. --white-y=<float>, -y=<float> Tells the tone-mapper what luminance level in the input image should be mapped to the maximum luminance of a display. Since HDR images contain only relative luminance information, tone-mapper does not know how bright should be the scene. This option is meant to fix this problem by providing tone-mapper with the information what lu- minance level in an input image should be perceived as a diffuse white surface. Default is none, which means that no such mapping will be enforced and tone-mapper is free to find an optimal bright- ness for a given image. This is a recommended setting for HDR im- ages. Setting --white-y could be necessary for dark scenes, which could be made too bright by the tone-mapper. The value of this para- meter can be also passed in pfsstream as a tag WHITE_Y. pfstools 1.7 and newer sets set this tag automatically for LDR images. The com- mand line option overrides the value of the pfstream tag. --fps=<frames-per-second>, -f=<frames-per-second> Set the frame rate of the input sequence. Default is 25. Currently only 3 values are supported: 25, 30 and 60. This parameter controls temporal filter that makes sure the resulting sequence is coherent in time. This reduces the likelihood of a visible flicker. --output-tone-curve=<file name>, -o=<file name> Write tone-curves to a text file. This option is mainly for debug- ging purposes, but can be used to visualize computed tone-curves. The tone-curve data is stored in a comma separated text file (CSV), consisting of three columns: frame number, log10 of input luminance factor, log10 of the resulting display luminance, and the pixel value (0-1). --verbose, -v Print additional information during program execution. --quiet, -q Do not display progress report. --help, -h Print list of commandline options.
