This paper proposes the first end-to-end deep framework for high dynamic range (HDR) imaging of dynamic scenes with large-scale foreground motions. In state-of-the-art deep HDR imaging such as [13], the problem is formulated as an image composition problem, by first aligning input images using optical flows which are still error-prone due to occlusion and large motions. In our end-to-end approach, HDR imaging is formulated as an image translation problem and no optical flows are used. Moreover, our simple translation network can automatically hallucinate plausible HDR details in the presence of total occlusion, saturation and under-exposure, which are otherwise almost impossible to recover by conventional optimization approaches. We perform extensive qualitative and quantitative comparisons to show that our end-to-end HDR approach produces excellent results where color artifacts and geometry distortion are significantly reduced compared with existing state-ofthe-art methods.
