Abstract

Now a day, HDR image is mostly used in applications of wide range such as next generation broadcast, digital cinema and digital photography, because of its high quality and its good expression ability. In our work we have improved an HDR (High Dimensional image) and changed it into multiple improved Low Dynamic Range (LDR) images. We further used multiple copies of the same image and classified differently as per new Low Dynamic Range. Hence we obtain many new exponentially improved images. These images can be further improved by further LDR technique. Finally, we combine all these images and obtain a final image. This final image will be better as compared to the original image. Hence we have an image which in itself will be improved version of the given image.
