Beyond the Kodak image set: A new reference set of color image sequences

摘要

In 1991 Kodak released a set of 24 digital color images derived from a variety of film source materials. Since then, most image processing algorithms have been developed, optimized, tested and compared using this set. Until a few years ago it was considered “the” image set; however, today it shows its limitations. Researches have expressed their need for better, more up-to-date material. We present a new set of high quality color image sequences captured with our professional digital cinema camera. This camera stores uncompressed raw sensor data and the set is freely available for FTP at ftp://imageset@ftp.arri.de/ password: imageset.
