High Dynamic Range Global Mosaic

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNIP,volume 3851))

Abstract

This paper presents a global approach for constructing high dynamic range mosaic from multiple images with large exposure differences. By relating image intensities to scene radiances with a convenient distortion model, we robustly estimated registration parameters for the high dynamic range global mosaic (HDRGM), simultaneously estimating scene radiances and distortion parameters in a single framework. Also, a simple detail-preserving contrast reduction method is introduced.
