A classic photographic task is the map** of the potentially high dynamic range of real
world luminances to the low dynamic range of the photographic print. This tone reproduction …

The availability of electric lighting has changed the lives of people the world over and
lighting is a major consumer of energy, yet little has been written about the forms of lighting …

Blind or no-reference (NR) perceptual picture quality prediction is a difficult, unsolved
problem of great consequence to the social and streaming media industries that impacts …

Image fidelity is the subset of overall image quality that specifically addresses the visual
equivalence of two images. This paper describes an algorithm for determining whether the …

Many state-of-the-art perceptual image quality assessment (IQA) algorithms share a
