Abstract: In some examples, a computing system accesses a field of view (FOV) image that has a field of view less than 360 degrees and has low dynamic range (LDR) values. The computing system estimates lighting parameters from a scene depicted in the FOV image and generates a lighting image based on the lighting parameters. The computing system further generates lighting features generated the lighting image and image features generated from the FOV image. These features are aggregated into aggregated features and a machine learning model is applied to the image features and the aggregated features to generate a panorama image having high dynamic range (HDR) values.

Abstract: A plurality of pixel-based sampling points are identified within an image, wherein sampling points of a pixel are distributed within the pixel. For individual sampling points of individual pixels, a corresponding radiance vector is estimated. A radiance vector includes one or more radiance values characterizing light received at a sampling point. A first machine learning module generates, for each pixel, a corresponding intermediate radiance feature vector, based on the radiance vectors associated with the sampling points within that pixel. A second machine learning module generates, for each pixel, a corresponding final radiance feature vector, based on an intermediate radiance feature vector for that pixel, and one or more other intermediate radiance feature vectors for one or more other pixels neighboring that pixel. One or more kernels are generated, based on the final radiance feature vectors, and applied to corresponding pixels of the image, to generate a lower noise image.

Abstract: In some embodiments, an image manipulation application receives a two-dimensional background image and projects the background image onto a sphere to generate a sphere image. Based on the sphere image, an unfilled environment map containing a hole area lacking image content can be generated. A portion of the unfilled environment map can be projected to an unfilled projection image using a map projection. The unfilled projection image contains the hole area. A hole filling model is applied to the unfilled projection image to generate a filled projection image containing image content for the hole area. A filled environment map can be generated by applying an inverse projection of the map projection on the filled projection image and by combining the unfilled environment map with the generated image content for the hole area of the environment map.

Abstract: Embodiments herein describe a framework for classifying images. In some embodiments, it is determined whether an image includes synthetic image content. If it does, characteristics of the image are analyzed to determine if the image includes characteristics particular to panoramic images (e.g., possess a threshold equivalency of pixel values among the top and/or bottom boundaries of the image, or a difference between summed pixel values of the pixels comprising the right vertical boundary of the image and summed pixel values of the pixels comprising the left vertical boundary of the image being less than or equal to a threshold value). If the image includes characteristics particular to panoramic images, the image is classified as a synthetic panoramic image. If the image is determined to not include synthetic image content, a neural network is applied to the image and the image is classified as one of non-synthetic panoramic or non-synthetic non-panoramic.
