Abstract
We present a framework for automatically enhancing videos of a static scene using a few photographs of the same scene.
For example, our system can transfer photographic qualities such as high resolution, high dynamic range and better lighting
from the photographs to the video. Additionally, the user can quickly modify the video by editing only a few still images of
the scene. Finally, our system allows a user to remove unwanted objects and camera shake from the video. These capabilities
are enabled by two technical contributions presented in this paper. First, we make several improvements to a state-of-the-art
multiview stereo algorithm in order to compute view-dependent depths using video, photographs, and structure-from-motion
data. Second, we present a novel image-based rendering algorithm that can re-render the input video using the appearance
