Patch-wise Image Deblurring using Reference Images in Video Sequence

Abstract

Single image deblurring is regarded as the illposed problem. Thus the single image deblurring tries to restore the visually pleasing image. On the other hand, multiple image deblurring tends to restore a sharper image than the single image deblurring, because we can find the sharp image from near frames. In this paper, we propose an effective deblurring method using a reference image. The reference image is a non-blurred and near image in the same video sequence of the blur image. The proposed method replaces blurred patches in the blur image with sharp patches in a reference image. Experimental results have shown that the proposed method restore both outlines and details of objects.
