Joint Motion Deblurring with Blurred/Noisy Image Pair

Motion blurred images are widely existing when using a hand-held camera especially under the dim lighting conditions. Since edge information contained in the noisy image may be blurred by the motion blur, a blurred/noisy image pair captured under different exposure time can help to restore a sharp image. In the traditional deblurring methods based on blurred/noisy image pair, the deblurring process is in series with the denoising process, so that restoration result is sensitive to the denoised result. In this paper, we propose a robust algorithm to obtain the sharp image by fusing the blurred image and noisy image. By joint modeling the deblurring model and denoising model, the restoration result can be optimized via estimating the sharp image and blur kernel alternately in the proposed methods, and it is not sensitive to the denoised result benefited by the joint model. Experimental results demonstrated that the proposed method can achieve better performance compared with the state-of-the-art single image denoising methods, single image deblurring methods and blurred/noisy pair deblurring methods.
