Simultaneous Stereo Video Deblurring and Scene Flow Estimation
Videos for outdoor scene often show unpleasant blur effects due to the large
relative motion between the camera and the dynamic objects and large depth
variations. Existing works typically focus monocular video deblurring. In this
paper, we propose a novel approach to deblurring from stereo videos. In
particular, we exploit the piece-wise planar assumption about the scene and
leverage the scene flow information to deblur the image. Unlike the existing
approach [31] which used a pre-computed scene flow, we propose a single
framework to jointly estimate the scene flow and deblur the image, where the
motion cues from scene flow estimation and blur information could reinforce
each other, and produce superior results than the conventional scene flow
estimation or stereo deblurring methods. We evaluate our method extensively on
two available datasets and achieve significant improvement in flow estimation
and removing the blur effect over the state-of-the-art methods.Comment: Accepted to IEEE International Conference on Computer Vision and

Generalized Video Deblurring for Dynamic Scenes
Several state-of-the-art video deblurring methods are based on a strong
assumption that the captured scenes are static. These methods fail to deblur
blurry videos in dynamic scenes. We propose a video deblurring method to deal
with general blurs inherent in dynamic scenes, contrary to other methods. To
handle locally varying and general blurs caused by various sources, such as
camera shake, moving objects, and depth variation in a scene, we approximate
pixel-wise kernel with bidirectional optical flows. Therefore, we propose a
single energy model that simultaneously estimates optical flows and latent
frames to solve our deblurring problem. We also provide a framework and
efficient solvers to optimize the energy model. By minimizing the proposed
energy function, we achieve significant improvements in removing blurs and
estimating accurate optical flows in blurry frames. Extensive experimental
results demonstrate the superiority of the proposed method in real and
challenging videos that state-of-the-art methods fail in either deblurring or
optical flow estimation.Comment: CVPR 2015 ora
Learning to Extract a Video Sequence from a Single Motion-Blurred Image
We present a method to extract a video sequence from a single motion-blurred
image. Motion-blurred images are the result of an averaging process, where
instant frames are accumulated over time during the exposure of the sensor.
Unfortunately, reversing this process is nontrivial. Firstly, averaging
destroys the temporal ordering of the frames. Secondly, the recovery of a
single frame is a blind deconvolution task, which is highly ill-posed. We
present a deep learning scheme that gradually reconstructs a temporal ordering
by sequentially extracting pairs of frames. Our main contribution is to
introduce loss functions invariant to the temporal order. This lets a neural
network choose during training what frame to output among the possible
combinations. We also address the ill-posedness of deblurring by designing a
network with a large receptive field and implemented via resampling to achieve
a higher computational efficiency. Our proposed method can successfully
retrieve sharp image sequences from a single motion blurred image and can
generalize well on synthetic and real datasets captured with different cameras
