High Dynamic Range Video Chains

چکیده
Over the last decade, much research experience has been gained in the realm of high dynamic range imaging (HDRI). On account of the significantly improved visual experience that HDRI offers, industry has recently taken a strong interest in this set of technologies. This is evident in the active consideration of HDR by standardization bodies, for instance DVD and EBU in the context of UHDTV, and the emergence of demos at tradeshows. To enable a more engaging/immersive viewing experience in the home or in the cinema, a range of technologies, workflows and processes should be adapted, and HDRI would need to evolve to become HDRV: high dynamic range video. There exists a good number of solutions that each solves part of the problem. However, as a significant number of problems remain open, there is, up to now, no integrated pipeline that includes everything from capture to post-production, archival/storage, compression, transmission, and display. In this paper, we review the requirements for building high dynamic range video pipelines, and discuss how and where HDR components can and should be inserted. This leads to a range of different scenarios, each with their own expected quality levels, associated cost and required effort to implement in practice. In particular, we consider an ideal end-to-end HDR video chain, as well as several variants that involve either legacy content or conventional decoding and rendering devices.

Scene change detection plays an important role in a number of video applications, including video indexing, searching, browsing, semantic features extraction, and, in general, pre-processing and post-processing operations. Several scene change detection methods have been proposed in different coding standards. Most of them use fixed thresholds for the similarity metrics to determine if there wa...
متن کاملHigh Dynamic Range Video Using Split Aperture Camera
We present a new approach to display High Dynamic Range (HDR) video using gradient based high dynamic range compression. To obtain HDR video, we utilize the split aperture camera. We apply a spatio-temporal gradient based video integration algorithm for fast and accurate integration of the three input HDR videos into a low dynamic range video, which is suitable for display. The spatiotemporal v...
