A method for capturing high intensity dynamic range scenes with a low dynamic range camera consists in taking a series of images with di erent exposure settings and combining these into a single high dynamic range image. The combined image values are found by weighted averaging of values from the di erently exposed images on a per-pixel basis. This paper reviews existing weighting schemes and c...

We consider the problem of developing colour sequences that offer the best dynamic range when used for pseudocolouring. We began with nine colour sequences currently suggested for visualization and informally compared them to discover which was subjectively seen to have the most pleasing visual aesthetic. This comparison indicated that different colour sequences are more appropriate for differe...

Tone-mapped images are the low dynamic range (LDR) images converted from high dynamic range (HDR) images. Recently, the objective quality assessment of tone-mapped images is becoming a challenging problem. However, there is no mature algorithm to deal with this issue until the tone-mapped image quality index (TMQI) was proposed recently, which is tone-mapped image quality index (TMQI). Unfortun...
