Abstract

In this paper we address the problem of estimating latent sharp image and unknown blur kernel from a single motion-blurred image. The blur results from camera shake and is spatially variant. Meanwhile, the blur kernel of motion has three degrees of freedom, i.e., translations and in-plane rotation. In order to solve this problem, we first analyzed the homography blur model for the non-uniform camera-shake blur. We simplified the model to 3-dimensional camera motion which can be accelerated by exploiting the fast Fourier transform to process subsequent image deconvolution. We then proposed an effective method to handle the blind image-deblurring problem by the image decomposition, which does not need to segment the image into local subregions under the assumption of spatially invariant blur. Experimental results on both synthetic and real blurred images show that the presented approach can successfully remove various kinds of blur.
