High dynamic range (HDR) imaging refers to digital image processing that modifies the range of color and contrast to enhance image visibility. To create an HDR image, two or more images that include various information are needed. In order to convert low dynamic range (LDR) images to HDR images, we consider the possibility of using a generative adversarial network (GAN) as an appropriate deep neural network. Deep learning requires a great deal of data in order to build a module, but once the module is created, it is convenient to use. In this paper, we propose a weight map for local luminance based on learning to reconstruct locally tone-mapped images.
