226
227<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>
228
229<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>
230
231<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>

345<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>

531<p>LevelImage() adjusts the levels of a particular image channel by scaling the colors falling between specified white and black points to the full available quantum range.</p>
532
533<p>The parameters provided represent the black, and white points.  The black point specifies the darkest color in the image. Colors darker than the black point are set to zero.  White point specifies the lightest color in the image.  Colors brighter than the white point are set to the maximum quantum value.</p>
534
535<p>If a '!' flag is given, map black and white colors to the given levels rather than mapping those levels to black and white.  See LevelizeImage() below.</p>

615<p>LevelImageColors() maps the given color to "black" and "white" values, linearly spreading out the colors, and level values on a channel by channel bases, as per LevelImage().  The given colors allows you to specify different level ranges for each of the color channels separately.</p>
616
617<p>If the boolean 'invert' is set true the image values will modifyed in the reverse direction. That is any existing "black" and "white" colors in the image will become the color values given, with all other values compressed appropriatally.

781<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>
