Image Deblurring

Ask about this topic

Overview

Image deblurring aims to recover sharp detail from images smeared by camera or scene motion, defocus, turbulence, and other optical effects. Methods range from blind and non-blind inverse-problem solvers and deep unrolling to CNNs, Transformers, state-space models, and diffusion or flow-based generative methods. Work also uses multiple frames, event-camera data, and 3D scene models, with benchmarks such as GoPro, HIDE, RealBlur, and DPDD testing motion and defocus restoration. A central challenge is transferring gains from synthetic data and standard metrics to real cameras and difficult scenes while balancing sharpness, fidelity, hallucination risk, and computational cost.
