  2. Image Deblurring: The Problem • Given a motion blurred image, we want to recover a sharp image: Point Spread Function (PSF) Motion blur Kernel Desired Output Input 2 / 25

  3. Why this is a difficult problem ? Blur kernel is known: This is an ill-posed under constrained problem:Different inputs can produce the same (very similar) output after convolution 3 / 25

  4. Blind deconvolution problem Blur kernel is unknown: 4 / 25

  5. Two causes for motion blur Blur is the same Blur is different Hand shaking (Camera “ego motion”) Object motion 5 / 25

  6. Properties of motion blur • Hand shaking • PSF is globally the same for the whole image • Observations are the whole image • Deconvolution is a global process • Relatively Easy – ``Well studied, some current works produce very good results’’ • Object Motion • PSF is varying across the whole image • Observations are only valid for local regions • Deconvolution is a local process • Have problem of mixing colors • Might have problem of occlusions and disocclussions • Very Difficult – ``Nothing closed, there is still have no good solution’’ 6 / 25

  7. Related works (Hand shaking) arg min I,K f(I◦K – B) Traditional approaches: • Wiener filter [Wiener, 1949] • Richardson and Lucy [Richardson 1972; Lucy 1974] Recent approaches: • Regularization based: • Total variation regularization [Dey et al. 2004] • Natural image statistics [Fergus et al. Siggraph 2006] • Alpha matte [Jia CVPR 2007] • Multiscale regularization [Yuan et al. Siggraph 2008] • High-order derivatives of gaussian model [Shan et al. Siggraph 2008] • Auxiliary information: • Different exposure [Ben-Ezra and Nayar, CVPR 2003] • Flutter shutter [Raskar et al. Siggraph 2006] • Coded aperture and sparsity prior [Levin et al. Siggraph 2007] • Blurred and noisy pairs [Yuan et al. Siggraph 2007] • Two blurred Images [Rav-Acha and Peleg2005; Chen and Tang CVPR2008] arg min I,K f(I◦K – B) + Regularization Terms arg min I,K f(I◦K’ – B’) + Regularization Terms 7 / 25

  8. Related works (Object motion) • Translational motion • Natural image statistics [Levin, NIPS 2006] • Two blurred Images [Cho et al. ICCV 2007] • Motion Invariant Photography [Levin et al., Siggraph 2008] • In-plane rotational motion • Shan et al. ICCV 2007 • Our approach [CVPR 2008] • Handle motion blur from both hand shaking and object moving • Handle translational, in-plane/out-of-plane rotational, zoom-in motion blur in a unified framework 8 / 25

  9. Basic idea [Ben-Erza CVPR’03] Hi-Resolution Low Frame-rate Low-Resolution Hi-Frame-rate time Motion blur exist in high resolution images. Our goal is to deblur the high resolution images with assistance from low resolution, high frame rate video. Observation: Tradeoff between Resolution and Exposure Time 9 / 25

  10. Our Hybrid Camera Hi-Res: 1024 x768 resolution at 25 fps Low-Res: 128 x 96 resolution at 100 fps. A beam-splitter is use to align their optical axes Dual-video capture synchronized by hardware High-Res Camera Low-Res Camera Beam-splitter 10 / 25

  11. Observation 1 • Spatially-varying motion blur kernels can be approximated by motion vector from low resolution video Motion Blur Kernels K Low-Resolution High Frame-rate Hi-Resolution Low Frame-rate 11 / 25

  12. Observation 2 • The deblured image, after down-sampling, should look similar to the low resolution image Deblurred Hi-Resolution Image Low-Resolution Image 12 / 25

  13. Our Formulation (Main Algorithm) • Bayesian ML/MAP model: I : Deblurred ImageK: Estimated Blur KernelIb: Observed High Resolution Blur ImageIl: Observed Low Resolution Shape Image Sequences Ko: Observed Blur Kernel from optical flow computation 13 / 25

  14. Optimization Procedure Deconvolution Eq. • Global Invariant Kernel (Hand Shaking) • Spatially varying Kernels (Object Moving) Kernel Reg. Low Resolution Reg. 14 / 25

  15. Moving Object Extraction • Moving object appears sharp in the high-frame-rate low-resolution video • Perform binary moving object segmentation in the low-resolution images • Compose the binary masks with smoothing to approximate the alpha matte in the high-resolution image Problem with mixing color 15 / 25

  16. Results • Image Deblurring: • Hand-shaking Motion Blur (Global Motion) • In-plane Rotational Motion Blur • Translational Motion • Zoom-in motion • Video Deblurring • Moving box: arbitrary in-plane motion • Moving car towards camera: translational + zoom in motion 16 / 25

  17. Results • Hand Shaking (Motion blur = Global) Input [Fregus et. al. Siggraph’06] [Ben-Ezra et. al. CVPR’03] Back Projection Our Result Ground Truth 17 / 25

  18. Results • Rotational Motion (Motion Blur = Spatially-varying) Input [Shan et. al. ICCV’07] [Ben-Ezra et. al. CVPR’03] Our Result Ground Truth Back Projection 18 / 25

  19. Results • Translational Motion (Motion Blur = Global for object) Input [Fregus et. al. Siggraph’06] [Ben-Ezra et. al. CVPR’03] Back Projection Our Result Ground Truth 19 / 25

  20. Results • Zoom-in motion (Motion Blur = Spatially-varying) Input [Fregus et. al. Siggraph’06] [Ben-Ezra et. al. CVPR’03] Back Projection Our Result Ground Truth 20 / 25

  21. Results (moving object) In-plane Rotation [Show video] 21 / 25

  22. Results (moving object) Out-of-plane Motion (zoom translate) [Show video] 22 / 25

  23. Limitations and Discussion • High frequency lost during the convolution process cannot be recovered • Small ringing artifacts cannot be removed • Basic assumptions: • Constant Illumination during exposure • Rigid objects • Moving objects are not overlapped • Problems in separating moving objects from moving background 23 / 25

  24. Summary of Image/Video Deblurring • Hybrid camera framework • Extended to spatially varying motion blur • Extended to video • Combined Deconvolution and Backprojection • Effective in reducing ringing artifacts • Effective in recovering motion blurred details • Formulated into a Bayesian ML/MAP Solution 24 / 25
