Blur in Images

There are two main types of blur

Motion Blur Out of Focus

slide-3

Motion Blur

Motion blur is usually created when the time

  • f exposure is long

relatively to the velocity

  • f movement.

Motion Blur

Typically, motion blur creates smoothness in the image

  • n the direction of movement, and many edges in the

vertical direction.

Previous Work

Most of known methods of debluring require prior knowledge uses PSF which a kernel based

  • n the angle and length of the motion.

Approach and Method

We used edge detection with high sensitivity. In a motion blurred image, we expected to find large amount of parallel lines in the direction

  • f movement and very few

lines in other directions.

Approach and Method

  • 2. Divide to grids

Since the blur could be local, we can expect part of the scene to be sharp. We divided the image matrix into grids, and looked for motion in each one of them

Approach and Method

The next step was to find parallel lines in the edge map, we used Hough transform for lines and serached for dominant direction.

Results

The result is a matrix represents the direction of blur detected in all parts, -1 if motion blur was not found. Here are the results as blue arrows.

Results

Better results can be achieved by different grid sizes, depending

  • n the pictures size, the size of the object in motion and the

motion direction change rate

Conclusions

Recognition of motion blurred images gives good results, recognition of about 80% in average of the the motion direction in the grids. Few pictures require lower threshold, more sensitive edge

  • detector. The average run time for picture of size 1500X1000 is

about 3.6 seconds. The majority of images with motion blur are recognized, but there is considerable amount of images without blur that are recognized as images with motion blur. Our suggestion is to run an algorithm to identify blurred areas prior to our algorithm, and try to detect motion only in those areas.

Conclusions

When the algorithm successfully finds motions in a grid, the returned direction is a pretty good estimation of the real motion direction in that grid. Very dark or very bright areas of motion are more difficult to identify and requires lower threshold of edge detecting. In some pictures the edge detector find false edges at the ends, therefore motion recognition is more likely to fail in those areas and give false result. Future work: when the direction of movement is known, finding the amount of movement in that direction could help with restoration of images with motion blur.
