Design and prototype of High Dynamic Range/Wide Color Gamut (HDR/WCG) video analyzer tool that automates the process of detecting four artifacts: contouring, incorrect color space, clipping and noise artifacts in video content which may arise during poor conversion from legacy Standard Dynamic Range (SDR) content. Project involves designing artifact detection algorithms to detect the four artifacts in HDR videos and packaging the algorithms into an intuitive Graphical User Interface (GUI) for users to adjust algorithm parameters and view results.
