Low-light image enhancement is severely ill-posed when the input frame contains missing structure, saturated noise, and weak local contrast. Event cameras provide asynchronous brightness-change observations with high temporal resolution, but prior works often treat voxel channels as an unordered or static feature stack before fusion, rather than explicitly modeling their within-window temporal evolution, weakening the temporal evidence that makes events useful.
Due to the limited dynamic range of conventional image sensors, captured low dynamic range (LDR) video often suffers from highlight clipping and shadow detail loss, making high-quality high dynamic ra...

The paper presents a lightweight extension to the Monst3R 4D reconstruction model by adding an event-camera input branch while keeping the rest of the architecture unchanged. Across three benchmark datasets, this RGB‑event fusion reduces absolute relative error by an average of 3.4% compared to the RGB‑only baseline, with the largest gains occurring under high object motion where RGB‑only methods falter. The study demonstrates that incorporating event data can meaningfully improve 4D reconstruction robustness without a full architectural redesign.

The paper presents a framework for converting standard dynamic range (SDR) videos into high dynamic range (HDR) videos using large-scale generative video models. It introduces a Multi-Exposure Video Model (MEVM) that predicts exposure-bracketed linear SDR sequences from a single nonlinear SDR input, and a Video Merging Model (VMM) that fuses these predictions into a high-quality HDR sequence while preserving detail in shadows and highlights. Experiments, qualitative evaluation, and a user study demonstrate robust HDR conversion for casual consumer footage and iconic films, and the approach can be integrated into existing SDR generative video pipelines.

PriorGS is a 3D Gaussian Splatting framework for single‑exposure high dynamic range (HDR) novel view synthesis that uses learned priors to guide HDR reconstruction and camera response function (CRF) estimation. It introduces a 3D base‑gain HDR representation, separating HDR radiance into an LDR base and a 3D gain field, which improves robustness to inconsistencies in pseudo‑HDR targets and enables 3D HDR appearance editing. Experiments show PriorGS outperforms existing baselines in HDR reconstruction quality.
