Abstract
High dynamic range (HDR) and wide color gamut video processing have started to receive significant research attention in recent years, especially in relation to content generation and processing. However, displaying such content is still a challenge, and efforts are required to make their deployment possible at consumer levels. While the emergence of locally backlit displays has helped to achieve higher contrast in the display of traditional low dynamic range videos, their use for displaying HDR videos is nontrivial. This chapter, therefore, aims to first identify a few challenges in this area. It then outlines a new dual modulation algorithm for the rendering of HDR content. It also discusses practical lessons that can be helpful toward the rendering of more accurate and visually appealing HDR content.

Preference of Experience in Image Tone-Mapping: Dataset and Framework for Objective Measures Comparison

TL;DR: A subjective experiment attempting to determine users’ preference with respect to these two types of content in two different viewing scenarios—with and without the HDR reference shows that the absence of the reference can significantly influence the subjects' preferences for the natural images, while no significant impact has been found in the case of the synthetic images.
