<h2><a href="../../api/MagickCore/enhance_8c.html" id="ClutImage">ClutImage</a></h2>
<p>ClutImage() replaces each color value in the given image, by using it as an index to lookup a replacement color value in a Color Look UP Table in the form of an image. The values are extracted along a diagonal of the CLUT image so either a horizontal or vertial gradient image can be used.</p>
<p>Typically this is used to either re-color a gray-scale image according to a color gradient in the CLUT image, or to perform a freeform histogram (level) adjustment according to the (typically gray-scale) gradient in the CLUT image.</p>
<p>When the 'channel' mask includes the matte/alpha transparency channel but one image has no such channel it is assumed that that image is a simple gray-scale image that will effect the alpha channel values, either for gray-scale coloring (with transparent or semi-transparent colors), or a histogram adjustment of existing alpha channel values. If both images have matte channels, direct and normal indexing is applied, which is rarely used.</p>

<p>ContrastStretchImage() is a simple image enhancement technique that attempts to improve the contrast in an image by 'stretching' the range of intensity values it contains to span a desired range of values. It differs from the more sophisticated histogram equalization in that it can only apply a linear scaling function to the image pixel values. As a result the 'enhancement' is less harsh.</p>

<h2><a href="../../api/MagickCore/enhance_8c.html" id="The_NormalizeImage">The NormalizeImage</a></h2>
<p>The NormalizeImage() method enhances the contrast of a color image by mapping the darkest 2 percent of all pixel to black and the brightest 1 percent to white.</p>
<p>The format of the NormalizeImage method is:</p>
<pre class="text">
MagickBooleanType NormalizeImage(Image *image,ExceptionInfo *exception)

<p>A description of each parameter follows:</p>

<h2><a href="../../api/MagickCore/enhance_8c.html" id="SigmoidalContrastImage">SigmoidalContrastImage</a></h2>
<p>SigmoidalContrastImage() adjusts the contrast of an image with a non-linear sigmoidal contrast algorithm. Increase the contrast of the image using a sigmoidal transfer function without saturating highlights or shadows. Contrast indicates how much to increase the contrast (0 is none; 3 is typical; 20 is pushing it); mid-point indicates where midtones fall in the resultant image (0 is white; 50 is middle-gray; 100 is black). Set sharpen to MagickTrue to increase the image contrast otherwise the contrast is reduced.</p>
<p>The format of the SigmoidalContrastImage method is:</p>
<pre class="text">
MagickBooleanType SigmoidalContrastImage(Image *image,
const MagickBooleanType sharpen,const char *levels,
ExceptionInfo *exception)
