This paper presents a neural network-based method to generate multiple images with different exposures from a single input low dynamic range (LDR) image for improved high dynamic range (HDR) imaging. The proposed algorithm consists of three steps: 1) 2-D histogram estimation; 2) neural network-based LDR images estimation; and 3) generation of an optimal set of differently exposed images. The proposed method first generates image features by estimating a patched-based 2-D histogram. The extracted features are used in an input layer of the neural network, which plays a role to select an optimal set of LDR images. A set of LDR images is generated using a curvature-based contrast enhancement method. Experimental results show that the proposed method can generate an optimal set of LDR images using neural network and provide improved HDR images. In addition, the proposed method can be implemented as a preprocessing step in most existing HDR frameworks. The proposed HDR approach is considered as a single-input method that gives almost the same performance to multiple image-based HDR method. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER] |
