RT Journal Article T1 Histogram-based method for contrast measurement A1 Quiroga Mellado, Juan Antonio A1 Sánchez Brea, Luis Miguel A1 García Botella, Ángel A1 Bernabeu Martínez, Eusebio AB A histogram-based technique for robust contrast measurement is proposed. The method is based onfitting the histogram of the measured image to the histogram of a model function, and it can be used forcontrast determination in fringe patterns. Simulated and experimental results are presented.
