Abstract
A method, processor, and computer readable medium for generating blended intensity data for processing by a further processor, the method comprising the steps of generating a local contrast map based on image data, the local contrast map comprising a plurality of contrast values. An alpha mask is generated by associating an alpha mask value to each contrast value. First intensity data based on the image data using a first intensity calculation method and second intensity data based on the image data using a second intensity calculation method are also generated. The blended intensity data is generated by blending from at least one of the first intensity data and the second intensity data based on the alpha mask values; and outputted to the further processor.
