Abstract

A method and apparatus for converting a standard dynamic range (SDR) video to a high dynamic range (HDR) video. The conversion is adaptive and takes both spatial and temporal information of a current frame and previous frames into consideration such that the majority of pixels falls into the most sensitive regions of human eyes in the target dynamic range, while at the same time, the continuity of luminance is maintained in temporal domain to prevent flickering.
