Optical systems in digital cameras present a limit during the acquisition of standard and High Dynamic Range Images (HDRI) due to the presence of veiling glare, an artifact caused by an unwanted spread of the source of light. In this paper, we analyze the state-of-the-art of veiling glare removal in HDRI, giving attention to the paper presented by Talvala. Then we describe an algorithm for veiling glare removal based on the same occlusion mask, to study the benefits provided by it in HDRI acquisition process. Finally, we demonstrate the efficiency of the occlusion mask method in veiling glare removal without any post production estimation and subtraction.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
