Abstract
Methods and systems for generating a set of forward and backward reshaping functions for the efficient coding of high-dynamic range (HDR) images are provided. Given an initial set of forward reshaping functions, output forward reshaping functions are constructed by a) using the forward reshaping functions to generate a first set of corresponding backward reshaping functions b) generating a second set of backward reshaping functions using a multi-segment polynomial representation with a common set of pivot points c) generating an output set of backward reshaping functions by optimizing the polynomial representation of the second set of backward reshaping functions to minimize gap values between consecutive segments and d) using the output set of backward reshaping functions to generate the output set of forward reshaping functions by minimizing the distance between original input HDR codewords and reconstructed HDR codewords.
