摘要
Ghosting artifacts are an open problem for popular multi-shot based high dynamic range (HDR) imaging. An effective solution is to capture two large-exposure-ratio (LER) standard dynamic range (SDR) images simultaneously via a single-shot. Brightness order reversal (BOR) artifacts are generated when the two LER images are directly fused together. It is crucial to interpolate an image with an exposure time in between the exposure times of two LER images. In this paper, a novel physics-guided diffusion model based exposure interpolation algorithm is proposed to address the BOR artifacts. An initial image is interpolated by a physics-driven component, and the residual high-frequency details are generated by a new diffusion model based component. The new diffusion model is based on the correlation analysis of generative models and includes a new predicted target to reduce the variation of the Pearson correlation between the noisy data and the target, as well as the amplification factor of the fitting error. Compared with existing neural augmented exposure interpolation algorithms on top of convolution neural networks, the proposed exposure interpolation algorithm has an inherent advantage to generate more high frequency information. Experiment results validate the proposed exposure interpolation algorithm.
