This results in a compression of the sensor illumination to charge transfer curve [2], 3] Another approach that achieves consistently higher signal to noise ratio (SNR) is multiple sampling [4] Here a scene is imaged several times at different exposure times, and the images are used to synthesize a high dynamic range image. For this approach to work at reasonable capture times, ....
....can be equally regarded as a good measure of quality. This is, however, not necessarily the case when dynamic range enhancement schemes are employed, as we will show in the following subsections. A. SNR for the Well Capacity Adjusting Scheme The well capacity adjusting scheme described by Knight [2] and Sayag [3] and implemented by Decker [1] compresses the sensor s current versus charge response curve using a lateral overflow gate, e.g. the reset transistor gate in a CMOS APS. The voltage applied to the overflow gate determines the well capacity. During integration, well capacity is ....

....local minima by developing a continuation method to solve the minimization problem iteratively. The weak membrane model was one of the first methods to be implemented in analog VLSI. Digital circuits for performing Gaussian convolution and edge detection began appearing in the early 1980 s [82] [83]. The possibility of performing segmentation and smoothing with analog circuitry, however, did not seem practical until the problem had been posed in terms of a physical model. Harris [84] developed the first CMOS resistive CHAPTER 5. AN ALGORITHM FOR AN ANALOG EDGE DETECTOR 68 fuse circuit, which ....

The possibility of performing segmentation and smoothing with analog circuitry, however, did not seem practical until the problem had been posed in terms of a physical model.
