PSF Estimation and Image Restoration for Motion Blurred Images

摘要

Point spread function (PSF) estimation and image restoration algorithm are the hotspots In the research of motion blurred image restoration. In order to improve the efficacy of image restoration, an improved algorithm named quadric transforms (QT) method is proposed in this paper by analyzing the restoration process of motion blurred images. Firstly, Fourier transform and homomorphism transform are applied to the original motion blurred image, and then the Fourier transform and homomorphism transform are used again to the obtained spectrum image. Secondly, the motion blur direction is estimated by Radon transform. Thirdly, the motion blur length is found by differential autocorrelation operations. Finally, utilizing the estimated blur direction and blur length, the motion blurred image is restored by Wiener filtering. Experimental results show that the proposed QT method can get more accurate estimated motion blur angles than the primary transform (PT, that is, Fourier transform and homomorphism transform are used one time) method and can get better restored images under the meaning of peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR).
