Description
Summary:Low-light photography presents significant challenges. Multi-image processing methods have made numerous attempts to obtain high-quality photos, yet remain unsatisfactory. Recently, bracketing image restoration and enhancement has received increased attention. By leveraging the full potential of multi-exposure images, several tasks (including denoising, deblurring, high dynamic range enhancement, and super-resolution) can be jointly addressed. This paper reviews the NTIRE 2024 challenge on bracketing image restoration and enhancement. In the challenge, participants are required to process multi-exposure RAW images to generate noise-free, blur-free, high dynamic range, and even higher-resolution RAW images. The challenge comprises two tracks. Track 1 does not incorporate the super-resolution task, whereas Track 2 does. Each track featured five teams participating in the final testing phase. The proposed methods establish new state-of-the-art performance benchmarks.
