| Summary: | Currently, high dynamic range (HDR) videos with high resolution (HR) have become popular due to the display and the rendered technological advancements. However, making ultra-high definition (UHD) with HDR videos is expensive. The legacy low-resolution (LR) standard dynamic range (SDR) format is still largely used in practice. It is necessary to search for a solution to transform LR SDR videos into UHD HDR format. In this paper, we consider joint super resolution and learning inverse tone mapping an issue of high-frequency reconstruction and local contrast enhancement, and we propose an architecture based on a generative adversarial network to apply joint SR-ITM learning. Specifically, we include the residual ResNeXt block (RRXB) as a basic module to better capture high-frequency textures and adopt YUV interpolation to achieve local contrast enhancement. By adopting a generative adversarial network as a pivotal training mechanism, our designs show advantages in both integration and performance. Our code is now available on GitHub: SR-ITM-GAN.
