302 <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>
304 <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>
306 <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>

646 <p>ModulateImage() lets you control the brightness, saturation, and hue of an image. Modulate represents the brightness, saturation, and hue as one parameter (e.g. 90,150,100). If the image colorspace is HSL, the modulation is lightness, saturation, and hue. And if the colorspace is HWB, use blackness, whiteness, and hue.</p>
648 <p>The format of the ModulateImage method is:</p>
651 MagickBooleanType ModulateImage(Image *image,const char *modulate)
654 <p>A description of each parameter follows:</p>
660 <p>Define the percent change in brightness, saturation, and hue.</p>

665 <div class="doc-section">
667 <p>NegateImage() negates the colors in the reference image. The grayscale option means that only grayscale values within the image are negated.</p>

673 const MagickBooleanType grayscale)

694 <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>

717 <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>
719 <p>The format of the SigmoidalContrastImage method is:</p>
722 MagickBooleanType SigmoidalContrastImage(Image *image,
723 const MagickBooleanType sharpen,const char *levels)
724 MagickBooleanType SigmoidalContrastImageChannel(Image *image,

744 <p>midpoint of the function as a color value 0 to QuantumRange.</p>
