Abstract:
A method includes obtaining multiple images of a scene including a first image associated with a first exposure value and a second image associated with a second exposure value. Each image includes image data in each of multiple channels of a color space, and the first exposure value is greater than the second exposure value. The method also includes decomposing each channel of each image into a base layer and a detail layer. The method further includes generating for each image, a blending weight map for the base layer and a blending weight map for the detail layer. The method includes combining each base layer and each detail layer of each channel of each image based on the blending weight map for the base layer for the image and the blending weight map for the detail layer of the image to obtain an HDR image of the scene.
