Abstract
Most recent face deblurring methods have leveraged the distribution modeling ability of generative adversarial networks (GANs) to impose a constraint that the deblurred image should follow the distribution of sharp ground-truth images. However, generating sharp face images with high fidelity and realistic properties from a blurry face image remains challenging under the GAN framework. To this end, we focus on modeling the joint distribution of sharp face images and segmentation label maps for face image deblurring in a GAN framework. We propose a semantic-aware pixel-wise projection (SAPP) discriminator that models pixel-label matching with semantic label map information and generates a pixel-wise probability map of realness for the input image as well as a per-image probability. Moreover, we introduce a prediction-weighted (PW) loss to focus on erroneous pixels in the output of the decoder, using per-pixel real/fake probability map to re-weight the contribution of each pixel in the decoder. Furthermore, we present a coarse-to-fine training technique for the generator, which encourages the generator to focus on global consistency in the early training stages and local details in the later stages. Extensive experimental results show that our method outperforms existing methods both quantitatively and qualitatively in terms of perceptual image quality.
