EU - CENTRAL ASIAN CIVIL SOCIETAL RELATIONS: UNREALISTIC EXPECTATIONS, DISCOURAGING RESULTS


Simplest Color Balance

In this paper we present the neflintw-r6mpw simplest possible color balance algorithm.The assumption underlying this algorithm is that the highest values of R, G, B observed in the image must correspond to white, and the lowest values to obscurity.The algorithm simply stretches, as much as it can, the values of the three channels Red, Green, Blue (
