HDR image semantic segmentation

Abstract

This work attempts to create a pipeline that accepts the high dynamic range (HDR) input in the .exr format, processes it, and feeds it to the deep neural network, which can perform a semantic segmentation task, detecting the sky. Currently, to our knowledge, available semantic segmentation models cannot accept HDR input in the .exr format. Several models that are trained on HDR input are presented and analyzed here. 1
