Each pixel is decomposed into a convex combination of white, black, and pure color in the proposed method. The intensity contrast and colorfulness are enhanced while ensuring hue preservation and the color gamut by transforming the coefficients of the convex combination. The novelty of the proposed method is that the coefficients of the convex combination are transformed using histograms derived from a uniform distribution in the sRGB color space.
