python opencv图像对比度增强,用python（cv2）中的OpenCV增加彩色图像对比度的最快方法是什么？...

I'm using OpenCV to process some images, and one of the first steps I need to perform is increasing the image contrast on a color image. The fastest method I've found so far uses this code (where np is the numpy import) to multiply and add as suggested in the original C-based cv1 docs:

if (self.array_alpha is None):

self.array_alpha = np.array([1.25])

self.array_beta = np.array([-100.0])

# add a beta value to every pixel

cv2.add(new_img, self.array_beta, new_img)

# multiply every pixel value by alpha

cv2.multiply(new_img, self.array_alpha, new_img)

Is there a faster way to do this in Python? I've tried using numpy's scalar multiply instead, but the performance is actually worse. I also tried using cv2.convertScaleAbs (the OpenCV docs suggested using convertTo, but cv2 seems to lack an interface to this function)
