Abstract:
Joint video deblurring and stabilization techniques are described. In one or more implementations, a deblurring and stabilization module is configured to jointly deblur and stabilize a video by grouping video frames into spatial-neighboring frame clusters, and building local mesh homographies for video frames in each spatial-neighboring frame cluster.
Abstract:
A computer-implemented method and apparatus are described for deblurring an image. The method may include accessing the image that has at least one blurred region and, automatically, without user input, determining a first value for a first size for a blur kernel for the at least one blurred region. Thereafter, automatically, without user input, a second value for a second size for the blur kernel is determined for the at least one blurred region. A suggested size for the blur kernel is then determined based on the first value and the second value.
Abstract:
Systems and methods are provided for providing improved de-noising image content by using directional noise filters to accurately estimate a blur kernel from a noisy blurry image. In one embodiment, an image manipulation application applies multiple directional noise filters to an input image to generate multiple filtered images. Each of the directional noise filters has a different orientation with respect to the input image. The image manipulation application determines multiple two-dimensional blur kernels from the respective filtered images. The image manipulation application generates a two- two-dimensional blur kernel for the input image from the two-dimensional blur kernels for the filtered images. The image manipulation application generates a de-blurred version of the input image by executing a de-blurring algorithm based on the two-dimensional blur kernel for the input image.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention provide systems, methods, and computer storage media directed towards automatic selection of regions for blur kernel estimation. In one embodiment, a process divides a blurred image into a regions. From these regions a first region and a second region can be selected based on a number of edge orientations within the selected regions. A first blur kernel can then be estimated based on the first region and a second blur kernel can be estimated for the second region. The first and second blur kernel can then be utilized to respectively deblur a first and second portion of the image to produce a deblurred image. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
Abstract:
A computer-implemented method and apparatus are described for automatically selecting a region in a blurred image for blur kernel estimation. The method may include accessing a blurred image and defining a size for each of a plurality of regions in the image. Thereafter, metrics for at least two of the plurality of regions are determined, wherein the metrics are based on a number of edge orientations within each region. A region is selected from the plurality of regions based on the determined metrics, and a blur kernel for deblurring the blurred image is then estimated for the selected region. The blurred image is then deblurred using the blur kernel.

Abstract:
An image de-blurring system obtains a blurred input image and generates, based on the blurred input image, a blur kernel. The blur kernel is an indication of how the image capture device was moved and/or how the subject captured in the image moved during image capture. Based on the blur kernel and the blurred input image, a de-blurred image is generated. The blur kernel is generated based on the direction of edges identified in the blurred input image and/or based on curves having a high curvature identified in the image (e.g., corners identified in the image).
Abstract:
A blurred image having a spatially invariant motion blur resulting from camera motion during image capture is deblurred based on one or more light streaks identified and extracted from the blurred image. A blur kernel for the blurred image is estimated by performing an optimization procedure having a blur kernel constraint based at least in part on the light streak. One or more light streaks can in some embodiments be posed as the blur kernel constraint. A modeled light streak may be defined as a convolution between the blur kernel and a simulated light source, with the optimization procedure being to minimize a distance between the modeled light streak and the corresponding identified light streak from the blurred image.
