NAME

       pfstmo_mai11 - Tone-mapping for backward-compatible compression

SYNOPSIS

       pfstmo_mai11 [--verbose][--quiet] [--help]

DESCRIPTION

       This  is a tone-mapping operator that is optimized to give the best performance for images
       or video that are encoded using a backward-compatible compression, such  as  HDR-JPEG,  or
       HDR-MPEG.  The  images  produced by this operator do not need to be visually pleasing. The
       details on the operator can be found in:

              Optimizing a tone curve for backward-compatible high dynamic range image and  video
              compression.
