Temporally Coherent Local Tone Mapping of HDR Video

We present a local HDR video tone mapping method, that can significantly reduce the input dynamic range while preserving local contrast without introducing visually significant temporal artifacts.

Interactive Intrinsic Video Editing

Intrinsic decomposition allows powerful video editing by separating scene illumination from object reflectance. We introduce a fast and temporally consistent approach based upon a precomputed gradient-domain L2-Lp solution, that propagates user scribbles. Applications range from retexturing to illumination-aware compositing, speeding up turnaround times by orders of magnitude.

TrackCam: 3D-aware Tracking Shots from Consumer Video

Tracking shots refers to a type of photography where the camera tracks a moving object, resulting in an image with foreground clear and background blurred according to foreground motion. In this work we propose a system to generate realistic, 3D-aware tracking shots from consumer videos.

Slippage-free Background Replacement for Hand-held Video

A new method for motion-compatible background replacement, where both the video of a moving subject and the video of the new background are captured using a freely-moving hand-held camera. Special attention is given to avoiding slippage artifacts, where the subject's feet appear to slip over the ground.
