Abstract

Input VDR images are received. A candidate set of function parameter values for a mapping function is selected from multiple candidate sets. A set of image blocks of non-zero standard deviations in VDR code words in at least one input VDR image is constructed. Mapped code values are generated by applying the mapping function with the candidate set of function parameter values to VDR code words in the set of image blocks in the at least one input VDR image. Based on the mapped code values, a subset of image blocks of standard deviations below a threshold value in mapped code words is determined as a subset of the set of image blocks. Based at least in part on the subset of image blocks, it is determined whether the candidate set of function parameter values is optimal for the mapping function to map the at least one input VDR image.
