TLDR
A novel, and interactive if desired, technique for compositing a video of a scene illuminated part by part by a moving light source into a single image since there is no requirement of camera calibration, modeling of the scene reflectance and light source estimation.Abstract:
Compositing the frames of a video into a single image can be quite useful in many applications like surveillance and special effects. We propose a novel, and interactive if desired, technique for compositing a video of a scene illuminated part by part by a moving light source into a single image. The automatically composited image provides well illuminated details of the objects in the scene which are in the path of the moving light. The proposed method also recovers the light path along with the illuminant direction and, through the user interaction, allows the user to select any specific sub-path and perform compositing on the corresponding video frames. This approach could prove to be an interesting idea since there is no requirement of camera calibration, modeling of the scene reflectance and light source estimation.read more

Exposure Fusion: A Simple and Practical Alternative to High Dynamic Range Photography
TL;DR: This work proposes a technique for fusing a bracketed exposure sequence into a high quality image, without converting to High dynamic range (HDR) first, which avoids camera response curve calibration and is computationally efficient.
