| 1. A method for determining a value of an adjustment parameter for adjusting an image, the method comprising:
specifying a first function of a local attribute based on values of the local attribute in the image;
specifying a second function of the local attribute and the adjustment parameter;
calculating an object function value for each of two or more test values of the adjustment parameter, where calculating an
object function value for each test value comprises:
evaluating the first function and the second function at a plurality of values of the local attribute, where evaluating the
second function includes using the test value;
accumulating differences between the first and second function at the plurality of values of the local attribute according
to a functional weight that depends on the value of the local attribute;
based on the calculated object function values and at least one of the two or more test values, determining the value of the
adjustment parameter for adjusting the image.
