Abstract:
High dynamic range (HDR) imaging usually produces ghosting artifacts, while the traditional matrix completion (MC) method may fail to completely remove the ghosts, without considering the motion characteristics of multi-exposure image. To solve this problem, this paper presents a new HDR imaging method based on content adaptive matrix completion of low dynamic range (LDR) image to remove the ghosts of HDR image. Firstly, according to the image luminance and chrominance information, the LDR image motion area is determined. Then, based on the priori information of motion, the regularization constraint intensity is adjusted in MC process to get each LDR image background information. Finally, a fusion strategy related to multiple exposures is proposed while the difference of details in each image area under different exposures is considered. Regular background sequences and cluttered background sequences are used for experiments. The experimental results demonstrate that, compared with the partial sum minimization of singular values-matrix completion method, the proposed method is more real-time and suitable for cluttered background sequences
