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 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.
arXiv:2512. 04390v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Joint video super-resolution and deblurring (VSRDB) requires both efficient long-range temporal modeling and robustness to frame-wise exposure-duration variation, which changes the extent of motion blur across video frames.
InstantHDR is a feed-forward network that initializes high dynamic range (HDR) 3D scenes from uncalibrated multi-exposure low dynamic range (LDR) image collections in a single forward pass. It uses geometry-guided appearance modeling for multi-exposure fusion and a meta-network for scene-specific tone mapping. The authors also created a pre-training dataset, HDR-Pretrain, with 168 Blender-rendered scenes to support generalizable HDR models, achieving a speedup of about 700× over state‑of‑the‑art optimization methods while maintaining comparable quality after lightweight post‑optimization.
arXiv:2608.28674v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multi-exposure is an efficient way to capture real-world high-dynamic-range (HDR) scenes. However, HDR imaging suffers from severe ghosting artifacts i...
