Blind Attention Geometric Restraint Neural Network for Single Image Dynamic/Defocus Deblurring.

Abstract

Based on the information loss analysis of the blur accumulation model, a novel single-image deblurring method is proposed. We apply the recurrent neural network architecture to capture the attention perception map and the generative adversarial network (GAN) architecture to yield the deblurring image. Considering that the attention mechanism has to make hard decisions about specific parts of the input image to be focused on since blurry regions are not given, we propose a new adaptive attention disentanglement model based on the variation blind source separation, which provides the global geometric restraint to reduce the large solution space, so that the generator can realistically restore details on blurry regions, and the discriminator can accurately assess the content consistency of the restored regions. Since we combine blind source separation, attention geometric restraint with GANs, we name the proposed method BAGdeblur. Extensive evaluations on quantitative and qualitative experiments show that the proposed method achieves the state-of-the-art performance on both synthetic datasets and real-world blurry images.
