Abstract
An image processing system auto white balances an image using an object in the image and a reference color distribution. Given an input image, a target object in the input image is identified. A reference color distribution for the object type of the target object from the input image is accessed. One or more image processing settings are determined that, when applied to the input image, minimize a difference in values between pixels of the target object and the reference color distribution. A white balanced image is generated by applying the one or more image processing settings to the input image, and the white balanced image is provided for presentation.
