Abstract
An image adjustment device includes: an illumination component derivation unit that derives an illumination component of a grayscale image; a reflectance component derivation unit that derives a reflectance component image that is a resulting image in which the illumination component is removed from the grayscale image; a contrast component derivation unit that derives a contrast component based on a contrast value between a pixel of the reflectance component image and a peripheral area of the pixel; a histogram derivation unit that derives a luminance histogram of the grayscale image weighted according to the contrast value for each pixel of the contrast component; a conversion function derivation unit that derives a luminance conversion function for converting a luminance such that a luminance histogram of a converted grayscale image in which the grayscale image is converted by the luminance conversion function and a predetermined histogram are matched with or similar to each other; and a luminance conversion unit that generates the converted grayscale image.
