Abstract:
A method of image processing converts images of different brightness to a common brightness range, the images representing at least partly the same scene. One of images including a local block with movement is selected for forming a composed image from the images. One or more corresponding blocks corresponding to the local block are determined in the images. Each of said one or more corresponding blocks is weighted with at least one of the following: similarity with respect to the local block, a distance from a location of the local block, saturation of the one or more corresponding blocks, and noise of the one or more corresponding blocks. The local block and at least one of the one or more corresponding blocks are combined, or the local block is replaced by at least one of the one or more corresponding blocks based on the weighting for forming the composed image from the images.
