It is often required to map the radiances of a real scene to a smaller dynamic range so that the image can be properly displayed. However, most such algorithms suffer from the halo artifact or require manual parameter tweaking that is often a tedious process for the user. We propose an automatic algorithm for high dynamic range compression based on the properties of human visual system. The algorithm...
Content-based retrieval has emerged as a promising approach to information access. In this paper, we propose an approach to music emotion ranking. Specifically, we rank music in terms of arousal and valence and represent each song as a point in the 2D emotion space. Novel ranking-based methods for annotation, learning, and evaluation of music emotion recognition are developed and tested on a moderately...
One common way to extend the battery life of a portable device is to reduce the LCD backlight intensity. In contrast to previous approaches that minimize the power consumption by adjusting the backlight intensity frame by frame to reach a specified image quality, the proposed method optimizes the image quality for a given backlight intensity. Image is enhanced by performing brightness compensation...
Maintaining image quality under various lighting conditions is critical to portable multimedia devices. In this paper, an image enhancement algorithm is proposed to deal with extremely dim LCD backlight (or strong ambient light) under which the image often becomes imperceptible. The crux of our idea is to keep the detail content of the image in the visible luminance range. To do that, a two-layer...
