Real-world video deblurring remains challenging due to diverse motion patterns, complex degradations, and the scarcity of realistic training data, yet robust restoration is critical for downstream pipelines such as mobile imaging and 3D reconstruction. This work presents \textbf{RealVDeblur}, an efficient generative framework designed to improve in-the-wild robustness under diverse real capture conditions. First, a large-scale, physically grounded blur synthesis pipeline is constructed from scene-level 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) assets and high-frame-rate videos, providing realistic training data covering both camera-induced and object-motion blur. Second, a video diffusion prior is leveraged for restoration; to better accommodate frame-dependent blur variations, temporal compression in the VAE is disabled and a frame-wise encoding scheme is adopted. For practical deployment on long videos, multi-step diffusion sampling is distilled into an efficient one-step generator, and a training-free Temporal Window Mask stabilizes inference beyond the training horizon with constant memory usage. Extensive experiments on diverse real-world benchmarks demonstrate strong perceptual quality, semantic fidelity, and temporal consistency on unseen videos, as well as improved robustness in downstream 3D reconstruction under severe motion blur.

Generative flow models offer powerful priors learned from large-scale natural images, but directly adapting them to restoration tasks such as motion deblurring causes severe fidelity degradation, as their training objective is inherently misaligned with restoration. We present DeblurFlow, a framework that resolves this misalignment by reformulating the flow trajectory itself: we replace the noise endpoint with the blur observation, which makes the underlying vector field coincide with the residual error between blur and clean images. Under this formulation, the standard flow matching loss naturally takes the form of a residual loss, allowing pretrained flow models to be optimized under restoration-aligned objectives via LoRA adaptation. This formulation further enables a dual-expert sampling strategy: a fidelity expert provides a high-fidelity initialization, e.g., PSNR 33.69 dB, and DeblurFlow enhances perceptual quality with only a marginal fidelity reduction to 33.05 dB, whereas directly applying a generative model on top of a fidelity expert decreases PSNR to 27.60 dB. To make this practical, we further introduce r-space, a latent space tailored for residual decoding rather than image reconstruction, which reduces encoder-decoder cost by up to 9×over standard VAE latents. Extensive experiments on GoPro, HIDE, RealBlur, and RWBI demonstrate that DeblurFlow achieves strong restoration fidelity and perceptual realism, while remaining computationally practical.
Recent progress in video diffusion models has enabled remarkable generative fidelity, yet leveraging these priors for restoration remains limited by the strong coupling between conditional and unconditional branches in standard classifier-free guidance. We introduce a training-free framework that enhances distorted and low-resolution videos by decoupling these signals in time. Our proposed Decoupled Time Guidance (DTG) evaluates the unconditional branch at a cleaner diffusion timestep, providing a lookahead prior that preserves geometry while suppressing replication of warped content. This temporal bias is annealed throughout sampling, allowing the model to transition from structure correction to detail refinement without retraining. Combined with any off-the-shelf restoration module in a plug-and-play manner, our approach improves perceptual coherence and restores plausible structure in AIgenerated and real-world videos alike. To facilitate evaluation, we curate GenWarp480, a benchmark of 4,400 distorted 480p videos synthesized from diverse text-to-video models. GenWarp480 focuses on characteristic generative degradations such as warped faces, body misalignments, and spatial artifacts, providing a purpose-built testbed for assessing robustness to generative errors. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method achieves significant improvements in structural fidelity and temporal stability without any model training.
Joint video super-resolution and deblurring (VSRDB) requires both efficient long-range temporal modeling and robustness to frame-wise exposure-duration variation, which changes the extent of motion blur across video frames. We propose FMA-Net++, a non-recurrent, sequence-level framework built from Hierarchical Refinement with Bidirectional Aggregation (HRBA) blocks. By stacking HRBA blocks, FMA-Net++ processes video frames in parallel while hierarchically expanding the temporal receptive field, avoiding the limited temporal receptive field of sliding-window designs and the sequential bottleneck of recurrent ones. To handle exposure-duration-dependent blur, we introduce an Exposure Time-aware Modulation (ETM) layer that conditions HRBA features on exposure embeddings from an Exposure Time-aware Feature Extractor (ETE). The conditioned features guide an exposure-aware flow-guided dynamic filtering module to predict motion- and exposure-aware degradation kernels. FMA-Net++ decouples degradation learning from restoration: the former predicts degradation priors and the latter exploits them for efficient high-resolution restoration. To evaluate VSRDB under controlled exposure-duration variation, we introduce the REDS-ME (multi-exposure) and REDS-RE (random-exposure) benchmarks. Trained solely on synthetic data, FMA-Net++ achieves state-of-the-art accuracy and temporal consistency on these benchmarks. It further shows strong out-of-distribution performance on GoPro and challenging real-world videos, while outperforming recent methods in both restoration quality and inference speed.
