A novel modified cepstral based technique for blind estimation of motion blur

In the problem of blind image deconvolution, estimation of blurring kernel is the first and foremost important step. Quality of restored image highly depends upon the accuracy of this estimation. In this paper we propose a modified cepstrum domain approach combined with bit-plane slicing method to estimate uniform motion blur parameters, which improves the accuracy without any manual intervention. A single motion blurred image under spatial invariance condition is considered. It is noted that the fourth bit plane of the modified cepstrum carries an important cue for estimating the blur direction. With the exploration of this bit plane no other post processing is required to estimate blur direction. The experimental evaluation is carried out on both real-blurred photographs and synthetically blurred standard test images such as Berkeley segmentation dataset and USC-SIPI texture image database. The experimental results show that the proposed method is capable of estimating blur parameters more accurately than the existing methods.     

一种混合模糊含噪图像的参数辨识方法

在航空摄影、景象匹配导航等领域,由光学相机采集的图像往往同时存在着运动模糊和散焦模糊。成像中的噪声进一步加大了混合模糊图像点扩展函数的参数辨识难度。提出了一种双谱混合模糊含噪图像的点扩展函数参数辨识方法。首先计算出经混合模糊后的标准测试图像所对应的运动和散焦模糊的双谱,然后通过曲线拟合出双谱中各自的统计特性与运动模糊尺度或散焦半径之间的函数关系,由此训练出的BP神经网络可以完成对其它含有噪声的混合模糊图像点扩展函数的参数辨识。实验结果表明,该方法适用于含有噪声的一定模糊参数范围内的混合模糊图像。在信噪比为25dB的情况下,辨别出的模糊参数偏差不超过0.5个像素。     

基于频谱分析的匀速运动模糊图像模糊方向识别

点扩展函数的设置是图像复原中的关键问题，对于匀速直线运动模糊图像，运动方向和模糊长度决定了点扩展函数。根据运动模糊图像和原始图像在频谱上存在的对应关系，即运动模糊图像频谱存在着对应于传递函数零点的暗条纹，提出对运动模糊图像，通过二维傅里叶变换、二值化以及Radon变换检测运动模糊图像频谱图上暗条纹的方向和位置，来实现运动方向测量的方法。用该方法对模糊图像进行检测，模糊方向的识别精度小于1°。实验证明该方法可以实现平面内任意方向运动的测量。     

倒谱在混合模糊图像分析中的应用

降晰参数识别在模糊图像恢复过程中具有很重要的作用。在各种图像捕获系统中,有两种形式的图像模糊比较常见:一种是由光学系统散焦造成的散焦模糊;另一种是物体与照相机之间的相对运动造成的运动模糊。相对单个模糊模型的参数识别来说,混合了散焦和运动模糊的图像,其模糊参数的识别要复杂得多。许多识别方法一般都是用来分析某一特定的模糊模型的,而对两种模糊混合在一起的情况来说是很难区分的。提出了一种倒谱分析方法,在倒谱域同时对这两种模型参数进行识别。在分析过程中,仍需要利用这两种模糊模型在频域的特征,首先应用一些调整性的变换,然后再转换到倒谱域,以便更准确地评估模糊参数。     

An improved Richardson-Lucy algorithm based on local prior

Ringing is one of the most common disturbing artifacts in image deconvolution. With a totally known kernel, the standard Richardson-Lucy (RL) algorithm succeeds in many motion deblurring processes, but the resulting images still contain visible ringing. When the estimated kernel is different from the real one, the result of the standard RL iterative algorithm will be worse. To suppress the ringing artifacts caused by failures in the blur kernel estimation, this paper improves the RL algorithm based on the local prior. Firstly, the standard deviation of pixels in the local window is computed to find the smooth region and the image gradient in the region is constrained to make its distribution consistent with the deblurring image gradient. Secondly, in order to suppress the ringing near the edge of a rigid body in the image, a new mask was obtained by computing the sharp edge of the image produced using the first step. If the kernel is large-scale, where the foreground is rigid and the background is smoothing, this step could produce a significant inhibitory effect on ringing artifacts. Thirdly, the boundary constraint is strengthened if the boundary is relatively smooth. As a result of the steps above, high-quality deblurred images can be obtained even when the estimated kernels are not perfectly accurate. On the basis of blurred images and the related kernel information taken by the additional hardware, our approach proved to be effective.     

Interlaced scan CCD image motion deblur for space-variant motion blurs

Motion blur is caused by camera shakes or object motions during exposure when the shutter speed is relatively slow. As for the object motion blur, the degradation of a CCD image is often characterized by space-variant motion blurs, since objects are often moving in different directions at different speeds. But most image restorations for space-variant motion blurs are addressed only for progressive scan CCD images. To address the space-variant image restorations for interlaced scan images, we propose a novel image restoration scheme. First, one interlaced scan image frame is required, which is divided into the odd field and the even field images. These two field images are further segmented into rectangular blocks. The motion vectors are computed in these rectangular blocks using an efficient block matching algorithm. Second, image restoration is performed in these rectangular blocks using a constrained least square algorithm in the odd or even field image, which can both preserve edge structures and remove noises. Our novel scheme is illustrated by restoring a space-variant blurred moving boat image and a synthetic blurred image.

基于分时积分亚像元融合的地球静止轨道平台消颤振技术

相较于低轨卫星线阵扫描成像模式,地球静止轨道面阵成像的曝光时间相对更长,更容易受到平台颤振的影响而造成图像模糊.为了消除由平台颤振引起的像质退化,本文提出了基于分时积分亚像元融合的方法.由于地球静止轨道的凝视成像特性,相机观察区域在长时间内保持不变,因此分时短曝光可以获得多帧目标内容相同,但模糊尺度更低的短曝光图像.然后对多帧短曝光图像采用基于能量区域质心法的相位相关算法进行亚像元图像配准,计算相对偏移量并进行补偿,位移探测准确度可达0.1像元以内,满足卫星平台应用需求.再按亚像元偏移量对多帧图像进行融合,融合的过程可以提升由于曝光时间缩短而降低的单帧图像信噪比,最终可以获得图像清晰度更高、信噪比与原长曝光图像相当、信息辨识度更好的遥感图像.

Restoration of images degraded by extreme mechanical vibrations

A method of numerically calculating the optical transfer function appropriate to any type of image motion and vibration, including random, has been recently developed. This method has been verified experimentally with real vibrations, and the close agreement justifies implementation in image restoration from blur deriving from any type of image motion, including random displacement. Here, image restorations of actual physically degraded images are presented, based on a constrained least squares improvement of the original Wiener filter. Even for extreme vibrations where the blur extent is much larger than the blurred detail, restoration is quite complete. The key to restoration is the determination of the optical transfer function unique to the particular image motion and vibration causing the blur. Results are also presented for low vibration frequency motion of random blur extent, as well as for high vibration frequencies.     

Blind image deconvolution using sparse and redundant representation

This work devotes to the image deconvolution problem that restores clear image from its blurred and noisy measurements with little prior about the blur. A deconvolution method based on sparse and redundant representation theory is developed in this paper. It firstly represents the blur and image over different redundant dictionaries and imposes sparsity constraint to their representation coefficients respectively, then alternately estimates them using an iterative algorithm employing optimization technique. Experimental results on astronomical images show that the proposed method can achieve as good performance as the method requiring a known blur, which demonstrates its effectiveness.

Image restoration for interlaced scan CCD image with space-variant motion blurs

When the speeds of objects in a scene exceed the temporal resolution of the camera shutter, motion blurs will occur. Since objects are often moving in different directions at different speeds, the degradation of a CCD image is often characterized by space-variant motion blurs. Image restoration algorithms for space-variant motion blurs are available for progressive scan CCD images, but not for interlaced scan images. To address the space-variant image restoration for interlaced scan images, a novel three-step image restoration scheme is proposed. Firstly, one interlaced scan image is divided into odd field and even field images. Secondly, these two field images are further segmented into rectangular blocks and the motion vectors are computed based on these rectangular blocks using an efficient block matching algorithm. Thirdly, image restoration is performed using a blind deconvolution algorithm in the odd or even field image. The final restored image is obtained by combining the restored odd and even field images. The scheme is illustrated by restoring a space-variant blurred moving vehicle image and a synthetic blurred image.
