Robust Depth Estimation from Auto Bracketed Images
As demand for advanced photographic applications on hand-held devices grows, these electronics require the capture of high quality depth. However, under low-light conditions, most devices still suffer from low imaging quality and inaccurate depth acquisition. To address the problem, we present a robust depth estimation method from a short burst shot with varied intensity (i.e., Auto Bracketing) or strong noise (i.e., High ISO). We introduce a geometric transformation between flow and depth tailored for burst images, enabling our learning-based multi-view stereo matching to be performed effectively. We then describe our depth estimation pipeline that incorporates the geometric transformation into our residual-flow network. It allows our framework to produce an accurate depth map even with a bracketed image sequence. We demonstrate that our method outperforms state-of-the-art methods for various datasets captured by a smartphone and a DSLR camera. Moreover, we show that the estimated depth is applicable for image quality enhancement and photographic editing.

Abstract categorial grammars with island constraints and effective decidability
A well-known approach to treating syntactic island constraints in the setting of Lambek grammars consists in adding specific bracket modalities to the logic. We adapt this approach to abstract categorial grammars (ACG). …
HDR Reconstruction from Bracketed Exposures and Events
Reconstruction of high-quality HDR images is at the core of modern computational photography. Significant progress has been made with multi-frame HDR reconstruction methods, producing high-resolution, rich and accurate c…

While the human eye can perceive an impressive twenty stops of dynamic range, smartphone camera sensors remain limited to about twelve stops despite decades of research. A variety of high dynamic range (HDR) image captur…
Zero-shot GeneralizationBricker to BRACE: A Bracket Exposure RAW Dataset and Restoration Model for Flicker-Banding
Flicker-banding (FB), arises from temporal aliasing between a camera's rolling shutter and a display's brightness modulation, degrading screen-captured image readability with color shifts and jagged patterns. Existing si…
Dark3R: Learning Structure from Motion in the Dark
We introduce Dark3R, a framework for structure from motion in the dark that operates directly on raw images with signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs) below $-4$ dB -- a regime where conventional feature- and learning-based meth…
