Wide dynamic range (WDR) images contain more scene details and contrast when compared to common images. However, it requires tone mapping to process the pixel values in order to display properly. The details of WDR images can diminish during the tone mapping process. In this work, we address the problem by combining a novel reformulated Laplacian pyramid and deep learning. The reformulated Laplacian pyramid always decompose a WDR image into two frequency bands where the low-frequency band is global feature-oriented, and the high-frequency band is local feature-oriented. The reformulation preserves the local features in its original resolution and condenses the global features into a low-resolution image. The generated frequency bands are reconstructed and fine-tuned to output the final tone mapped image that can display on the screen with minimum detail and contrast loss. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method outperforms state-of-the-art WDR image tone mapping methods. The code is made publicly available at https://github.com/linmc86/Deep-Reformulated-Laplacian-Tone-Mapping.

Single-image HDR reconstruction or inverse tone mapping (iTM) is a challenging task. In particular, recovering information in over-exposed regions is extremely difficult because details in such regions are almost completely lost. In this paper, we pr
esent a deep learning based iTM method that takes advantage of the feature extraction and mapping power of deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and uses a lightness prior to modulate the CNN to better exploit observations in the surrounding areas of the over-exposed regions to enhance the quality of HDR image reconstruction. Specifically, we introduce a Hierarchical Synthesis Network (HiSN) for inferring a HDR image from a LDR input and a Lightness Adpative Modulation Network (LAMN) to incorporate the the lightness prior knowledge in the inferring process. The HiSN hierarchically synthesizes the high-brightness component and the low-brightness component of the HDR image whilst the LAMN uses a lightness adaptive mask that separates detail-less saturated bright pixels from well-exposed lower light pixels to enable HiSN to better infer the missing information, particularly in the difficult over-exposed detail-less areas. We present experimental results to demonstrate the effectiveness of the new technique based on quantitative measures and visual comparisons. In addition, we present ablation studies of HiSN and visualization of the activation maps inside LAMN to help gain a deeper understanding of the internal working of the new iTM algorithm and explain why it can achieve much improved performance over state-of-the-art algorithms.
The dynamic range of our normal life can exceeds 120 dB, however, the smart-phone cameras and the conventional digital cameras can only capture a dynamic range of 90 dB, which sometimes leads to loss of details for the recorded image. Now, some profe
ssional hardware applications and image fusion algorithms have been devised to take wide dynamic range (WDR), but unfortunately existing devices cannot display WDR image. Tone mapping (TM) thus becomes an essential step for exhibiting WDR image on our ordinary screens, which convert the WDR image into low dynamic range (LDR) image. More and more researchers are focusing on this topic, and give their efforts to design an excellent tone mapping operator (TMO), showing detailed images as the same as the perception that human eyes could receive. Therefore, it is important for us to know the history, development, and trend of TM before proposing a practicable TMO. In this paper, we present a comprehensive study of the most well-known TMOs, which divides TMOs into traditional and machine learning-based category.
Wide dynamic range (WDR) image tone mapping is in high demand in many applications like film production, security monitoring, and photography. It is especially crucial for mobile devices because most of the images taken today are from mobile phones,
hence such technology is highly demanded in the consumer market of mobile devices and is essential for a good customer experience. However, high-quality and high-performance WDR image tone mapping implementations are rarely found in the mobile-end. In this paper, we introduce a high performance, mobile-end WDR image tone mapping implementation. It leverages the tone mapping results of multiple receptive fields and calculates a suitable value for each pixel. The utilization of integral image and integral histogram significantly reduce the required computation. Moreover, GPU parallel computation is used to increase the processing speed. The experimental results indicate that our implementation can process a high-resolution WDR image within a second on mobile devices and produce appealing image quality.
We describe a deep high-dynamic-range (HDR) image tone mapping operator that is computationally efficient and perceptually optimized. We first decompose an HDR image into a normalized Laplacian pyramid, and use two deep neural networks (DNNs) to esti
mate the Laplacian pyramid of the desired tone-mapped image from the normalized representation. We then end-to-end optimize the entire method over a database of HDR images by minimizing the normalized Laplacian pyramid distance (NLPD), a recently proposed perceptual metric. Qualitative and quantitative experiments demonstrate that our method produces images with better visual quality, and runs the fastest among existing local tone mapping algorithms.
Tone-mapping plays an essential role in high dynamic range (HDR) imaging. It aims to preserve visual information of HDR images in a medium with a limited dynamic range. Although many works have been proposed to provide tone-mapped results from HDR im
ages, most of them can only perform tone-mapping in a single pre-designed way. However, the subjectivity of tone-mapping quality varies from person to person, and the preference of tone-mapping style also differs from application to application. In this paper, a learning-based multimodal tone-mapping method is proposed, which not only achieves excellent visual quality but also explores the style diversity. Based on the framework of BicycleGAN, the proposed method can provide a variety of expert-level tone-mapped results by manipulating different latent codes. Finally, we show that the proposed method performs favorably against state-of-the-art tone-mapping algorithms both quantitatively and qualitatively.
