Abstract:

This paper proposes a two-layer High Dynamic Range (HDR) coding scheme using a new tone mapping. Our tone mapping method transforms an HDR image onto a Low Dynamic Range (LDR) image by using a base map that is a smoothed version of the HDR luminance. In our scheme, the HDR image can be reconstructed from the tone mapped LDR image. Our method makes use of this property to realize a two-layer HDR coding by encoding both of the tone mapped LDR image and the base map. This paper validates its effectiveness of our approach through some experiments.
