Title: A hands-on approach to high-dynamic-range and superresolution fusion
Abstract: This paper discusses a new framework to enhance image and video quality. Recent advances in high-dynamic-range image fusion and superresolution make it possible to extend the intensity range or to increase the resolution of the image beyond the limitations of the sensor. In this paper, we propose a new way to combine both of these fusion methods in a two-stage scheme. To achieve robust image enhancement in practical application scenarios, we adapt state-of-the-art methods for automatic photometric camera calibration, controlled image acquisition, image fusion and tone mapping. With respect to high-dynamic-range reconstruction, we show that only two input images can sufficiently capture the dynamic range of the scene. The usefulness and performance of this system is demonstrated on images taken with various types of cameras.
