Apparent sharpness of 3D video when one eye's view is more blurry.
When the images presented to each eye differ in sharpness, the fused percept remains relatively sharp. Here, we measure this effect by showing stereoscopic videos that have been blurred for one eye, or both eyes, and psychophysically determining when they appear equally sharp. For a range of blur magnitudes, the fused percept always appeared significantly sharper than the blurrier view. From these data, we investigate to what extent discarding high spatial frequencies from just one eye's view reduces the bandwidth necessary to transmit perceptually sharp 3D content. We conclude that relatively high-resolution video transmission has the most potential benefit from this method
Learning Blind Motion Deblurring
As handheld video cameras are now commonplace and available in every
smartphone, images and videos can be recorded almost everywhere at anytime.
However, taking a quick shot frequently yields a blurry result due to unwanted
camera shake during recording or moving objects in the scene. Removing these
artifacts from the blurry recordings is a highly ill-posed problem as neither
the sharp image nor the motion blur kernel is known. Propagating information
between multiple consecutive blurry observations can help restore the desired
sharp image or video. Solutions for blind deconvolution based on neural
networks rely on a massive amount of ground-truth data which is hard to
acquire. In this work, we propose an efficient approach to produce a
significant amount of realistic training data and introduce a novel recurrent
network architecture to deblur frames taking temporal information into account,
which can efficiently handle arbitrary spatial and temporal input sizes. We
demonstrate the versatility of our approach in a comprehensive comparison on a
number of challening real-world examples.Comment: International Conference on Computer Vision (ICCV) (2017
Recent Progress in Image Deblurring
This paper comprehensively reviews the recent development of image
deblurring, including non-blind/blind, spatially invariant/variant deblurring
techniques. Indeed, these techniques share the same objective of inferring a
latent sharp image from one or several corresponding blurry images, while the
blind deblurring techniques are also required to derive an accurate blur
kernel. Considering the critical role of image restoration in modern imaging
systems to provide high-quality images under complex environments such as
motion, undesirable lighting conditions, and imperfect system components, image
deblurring has attracted growing attention in recent years. From the viewpoint
of how to handle the ill-posedness which is a crucial issue in deblurring
tasks, existing methods can be grouped into five categories: Bayesian inference
framework, variational methods, sparse representation-based methods,
homography-based modeling, and region-based methods. In spite of achieving a
certain level of development, image deblurring, especially the blind case, is
limited in its success by complex application conditions which make the blur
kernel hard to obtain and be spatially variant. We provide a holistic
understanding and deep insight into image deblurring in this review. An
analysis of the empirical evidence for representative methods, practical
issues, as well as a discussion of promising future directions are also
presented.Comment: 53 pages, 17 figure
