Limited by the trade-off between frame rate and exposure time when capturing moving scenes with conventional cameras, frame based HDR video reconstruction suffers from scene-dependent exposure ratio balancing and ghosting artifacts. Event cameras provide an alternative visual representation with a much higher dynamic range and temporal resolution free from the above issues, which could be an effective guidance for HDR imaging from LDR videos. In this paper, we propose a multimodal learning framework for event guided HDR video reconstruction. In order to better leverage the knowledge of the same scene from the two modalities of visual signals, a multimodal representation alignment strategy to learn a shared latent space and a fusion module tailored to complementing two types of signals for different dynamic ranges in different regions are proposed. Temporal correlations are utilized recurrently to suppress the flickering effects in the reconstructed HDR video. The proposed HDRev-Net demonstrates state-of-the-art performance quantitatively and qualitatively for both synthetic and real-world data.

Shale is featured by nanometer pores and ultralow permeability. Enhancing shale oil recovery after primary production is challenging as a result of the low injectivity of water. CO2 could be a promising injection fluid to enhance shale oil recovery for its high mobility in porous media and mixability with hydrocarbons. Fluid behaviors in the nanometer pores of shale reservoirs deviate from those in the micrometer pores of conventional reservoirs. The previous understanding of CO2 displacement and sequestration in conventional reservoirs is not completely applicable to shale reservoirs. In this review, we analyzed research advances in CO2 interactions with reservoir fluids and shale rocks at the microscopic level. We delineated recent progress in interpreting phase behavior, mass transfer of the CO2–oil system confined in nanometer pores, and reshaping of CO2-induced mineralization in shale porous media. We also discussed limitations and future directions for studying CO2 injection in shale reservoirs, from the experimental scope, theoretical analysis, and field application.
