Abstract
Blind image deblurring is a challenging problem in computer vision, aiming to restore the sharp image from blurred observation. Due to the incompatibility between the complex unknown degradation and the simple synthetic model, directly training a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) usually cannot sufficiently handle real-world blurry images. An existed generative adversarial network (GAN) can generate more detailed and realistic images, but the game between generator and discriminator is unbalancing, which leads to the training parameters not being able to converge to the ideal Nash equilibrium points. In this paper, we propose a GAN with a dual-branch discriminator using multiple sparse priors for image deblurring (DBSGAN) to overcome this limitation. By adding the multiple sparse priors into the other branch of the discriminator, the task of the discriminator is more complex. It can balance the game between the generator and the discriminator. Extensive experimental results on both synthetic and real-world blurry image datasets demonstrate the superior performance of our method over the state of the art in terms of quantitative metrics and visual quality. Especially for the GOPRO dataset, the averaged PSNR improves over others.
