Abstract

A method includes obtaining, using at least one sensor of an electronic device, multiple image frames of a scene. The multiple image frames include a first image frame and a second image frame captured using different exposures. The method also includes excluding, using at least one processor of the electronic device, pixels in the first and second image frames based on a coarse motion map. The method further includes generating, using the at least one processor, multiple local histogram match maps based on different portions of the first and second image frames. In addition, the method includes generating, using the at least one processor, an image of the scene using the local histogram match maps.
