N2 - A novel power-constrained contrast enhancement algorithm for organic light-emitting diode (OLED) displays is proposed in this work. We first develop the log-modified histogram equalization (LMHE) scheme, which reduces overstretching artifacts of the conventional histogram equalization technique. Then, we model the power consumption in OLED displays, and incorporate it into LMHE to achieve the optimal tradeoff between contrast enhancement and power saving. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm can reduce the power consumption significantly, while preserving image qualities.
