AdaptiveContrastCommand Class

Summary

Performs adaptive contrast enhancement (ACE) to regions that are originally low in contrast. This command is available in the Medical and above toolkits.

Syntax
C#
VB
Objective-C
C++
Java
public class AdaptiveContrastCommand : RasterCommand 
Public Class AdaptiveContrastCommand  
   Inherits RasterCommand 
@interface LTAdaptiveContrastCommand : LTRasterCommand 
public class AdaptiveContrastCommand extends RasterCommand 
public ref class AdaptiveContrastCommand : public RasterCommand   

Remarks
  • Adaptive contrast enhancement (ACE) adjusts image contrast by giving more contrast to areas which are originally low in contrast. This is different from histogram-based techniques which are based on all image pixels (the histogram itself).
  • Local histogram equalization is another technique that can be used to reveal detail of areas, since it depends on area pixels only. Use LocalHistogramEqualizeCommand to perform a local histogram equalization.
  • This command supports 12 and 16-bit grayscale and 48 and 64-bit color images. Support for 12 and 16-bit grayscale and 48 and 64-bit color images is available only in the Document/Medical toolkits.
  • This command does not support 32-bit grayscale images.

Example

Run the AdaptiveContrastCommand on an image.
