Realistic Image Rendition Using a Variable Exponent Functional Model for Retinex

Realistic Image Rendition Using a Variable Exponent Functional Model for Retinex

The goal of realistic image rendition is to recover the acquired image under imperfect illuminant conditions, where non–uniform illumination may degrade image quality with high contrast and low SNR. In this paper, the assumption regarding illumination is modified and a variable exponent functional m...
