Abstract
An exposure correction method for digital images first computes a gray-level histogram of an image. Then determine whether the exposure of the image is normal from the gray-level histogram, thereby determining an exposure threshold. The central region of the image is extracted to find an average brightness Iave. The average brightness Iave and a destination brightness Idest are used to determine an adjusting curve y=f(x). The brightness channel is adjusted according to a constructed correspondence table. Therefore, the image processing effects are enhanced even though the processing time is reduced.
