Various embodiments of methods and apparatus for motion deblurring in text images are disclosed. In one embodiment, a threshold-based text prediction for a blurred image is generated. A point spread function for the blurred image is estimated. A result of the threshold-based text prediction function is deconvolved based on the point spread function. The generating, estimating, and deconvolving are iterated at a plurality of scales, and a final deconvolution of a result of the iteratively deconvolving is executed.
