ABSTRACT
High dynamic range (HDR) images have the highest range of colours and brightness level compared to low dynamic range images (LDR). These pixels present in HDR images improve the visual quality of the image by attracting the audience with its realistic nature. This paper reports the construction of an LDR image which is obtained from a regular high dynamic range image using different tone mapping operators like gamma, Banterle, Chiu, Raman. Each image/scene being captured is exposed to a different luminance range. Here, an HDR image is considered and different TMOs are applied to obtain the LDR images. The quality performance parameters like mean square error (MSE), luminance, modified PSNR (Mpsnr), tone mapped quality index (TMQI) and FSITM were correlated to define the feature of the tone mapped operator. The comparison of these parameters with different TMOs is discussed.
