实时图像盲复原技术

在有效的视频传输过程中图像的降质是不可避免的，可以通过图像盲复原重建降质的图像。因为不需要已知点扩展函数（PSF），所以得到广泛的应用。视频图像变化明显，传输的数据量大，因此需要一种计算复杂度小的方法来实现图像的盲复原。从此点出发包括两个主要的步骤：模糊图像到拉冬变换域的映射和在这个城内的盲模糊识别。这一映射使系统从2维到1维简化了计算的复杂度，更加符合实时的要求。

Multichannel blind iterative image restoration

Blind image deconvolution is required in many applications of microscopy imaging, remote sensing, and astronomical imaging. Unfortunately, in a single-channel framework, serious conceptual and numerical problems are often encountered. An eigenvector-based method (EVAM) has been proposed for a multichannel framework which determines perfectly convolution masks in a noise-free environment if channel disparity, called co-primeness, is satisfied (see Harikumar, G. and Bresler, Y., ibid., vol.8, no.2, p.202-19, 1999; Proc. ICIP 96, vol.3, p.97-100, 1996). We propose a novel iterative algorithm based on recent anisotropic denoising techniques of total variation and a Mumford-Shah functional with the EVAM restoration condition included. A linearization scheme of half-quadratic regularization together with a cell-centered finite difference discretization scheme is used in the algorithm and provides a unified approach to the solution of total variation or Mumford-Shah. The algorithm performs well even on very noisy images and does not require an exact estimation of mask orders. We demonstrate the capabilities of the algorithm on synthetic data. Finally, the algorithm is applied to defocused images taken with a digital camera and to data from astronomical ground-based observations of the Sun.     

A VQ-based blind image restoration algorithm

Learning-based algorithms for image restoration and blind image restoration are proposed. Such algorithms deviate from the traditional approaches in this area, by utilizing priors that are learned from similar images. Original images and their degraded versions by the known degradation operator (restoration problem) are utilized for designing the VQ codebooks. The codevectors are designed using the blurred images. For each such vector, the high frequency information obtained from the original images is also available. During restoration, the high frequency information of a given degraded image is estimated from its low frequency information based on the codebooks. For the blind restoration problem, a number of codebooks are designed corresponding to various versions of the blurring function. Given a noisy and blurred image, one of the codebooks is chosen based on a similarity measure, therefore providing the identification of the blur. To make the restoration process computationally efficient, the principal component analysis (PCA) and VQ-nearest neighbor approaches are utilized. Simulation results are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms.     

基于纹理复杂度的含噪模糊图像盲复原算法设计

传统的模糊图像盲复原算法的纹理复杂度高,降低了模糊图像的质量。为此,文中设计了基于纹理复杂度的含噪模糊图像盲复原算法。首先,分析含噪模糊图像的噪声特点,在保留原有图像信息的前提下计算垂直方向和水平方向的扩散系数,得到ADF在含噪模糊图像上的表达,完成含噪模糊图像的去噪预处理。通过建立含噪模糊图像的数学模型描述其退化过程,继而构建含噪模糊图像降质模型。最后,在纹理复杂度分析的基础上,完成奇异值分解检测和alpha通道的计算,通过合成操作实现含噪模糊图像的盲复原算法的设计。实验结果表明,相比于传统盲复原算法,在所提算法下,图像的纹理复杂度低,图像质量得以提升,且复原结果的误差较小,算法整体有效性较高。     

On eigenstructure-based direct multichannel blind image restoration

Existing eigenstructure-based direct multichannel blind image restoration techniques include nullspace-based and direct deconvolver estimation techniques. The nullspace-based approach can be formulated as an optimization problem. We show that this formulation implies a new subspace-based approach that uses matrix operations. This new approach has the same advantages as the nullspace-based one but requires less computational complexity. Under some mild conditions, its complexity is equal to that of the FFT. Furthermore, the relation among the nullspace-based approach, the direct deconvolver estimation and the new subspace-based approach is studied.

Improved blind image restoration scheme using recurrent filtering

In the paper, the idea of space-adaptive regularisation is introduced into the nonnegativity and support constraints recursive inverse filtering (NAS-RIF) algorithm for blind image restoration. A newly developed cost function is obtained by adding a space-adaptive regularisation term to the cost function of the NAS-RIF algorithm to prevent noise amplification and to reduce ringing artifacts. Compared to the original NAS-RIF algorithm, the improved NAS-RIF algorithm is particularly effective under low SNR conditions. Also, the experimental results show that the convergence characteristic of the improved NAS-RIF algorithm is much more stable and the converged solution is capable of providing an excellent estimate of the original image

Image blind restoration based on degradation representation network

Most deep learning (DL)-based image restoration methods have exploited excellent performance by learning a non-linear mapping function from low quality images to high quality images. However, two major problems restrict the development of the image restoration methods. First, most existing methods based on fixed degradation suffer from significant performance drop when facing the unknown degradation, because of the huge gap between the fixed degradation and the unknown degradation. Second, the unknown-degradation estimation may lead to restoration task failure due to uncertain estimation errors. To handle the unknown degradation in the real application, we introduce a degradation representation network for single image blind restoration (DRN). Different from the methods of estimating pixel space, we use an encoder network to learn abstract representations for estimating different degradation kernels in the representation space. Furthermore, a degradation perception module with flexible adaptability to different degradation kernels is used to restore more structural details. In our experiments, we compare our DRN with several state-of-the-art methods for two image restoration tasks, including image super-resolution (SR) and image denoising. Quantitative results show that our degradation representation network is accurate and efficient for single image restoration.     

Efficient blind image restoration using discrete periodic Radon transform

Restoring an image from its convolution with an unknown blur function is a well-known ill-posed problem in image processing. Many approaches have been proposed to solve the problem and they have shown to have good performance in identifying the blur function and restoring the original image. However, in actual implementation, various problems incurred due to the large data size and long computational time of these approaches are undesirable even with the current computing machines. In this paper, an efficient algorithm is proposed for blind image restoration based on the discrete periodic Radon transform (DPRT). With DPRT, the original two-dimensional blind image restoration problem is converted into one-dimensional ones, which greatly reduces the memory size and computational time required. Experimental results show that the resulting approach is faster in almost an order of magnitude as compared with the traditional approach, while the quality of the restored image is similar.     

Underwater image restoration by means of blind deconvolution approach

Although the use of blind deconvolution of image restoration is a widely known concept, little literatures have discussed in detail its application in the problem of restoration of underwater range-gated laser images. With the knowledge of the point spread function (PSF) and modulation transfer function (MTF) of water,underwater images can be better restored or enhanced. We first review image degradation process and Wells' small angle approximation theory, and then provide an image enhancement method for our underwater laser imaging system by blind deconvolution method based on small angle approximation. We also introduce a modified normalized mean square error (NMSE) method to validate the convergence of the blind deconvolution algorithm which is applied in our approach. The results of different initial guess of blind deconvolution are compared and discussed. Moreover, restoration results are obtained and discussed by intentionally changing the MTF parameters and using non-model-based PSF as the initial guess.     

应用改进自蛇模型和L-R算法恢复毫米波图像

在毫米波的图像恢复中,L-R算法是一种简单而有效的非线性方法,但当噪声不可忽略时,L-R算法难以获得较好的复原结果。针对毫米波图像数据量少和图像分辨率低的特点,提出基于改进自蛇模型和L-R算法毫米波图像恢复方法,以局部方差构造自蛇模型的边缘停止函数,其改进自蛇模型在消除噪声的同时更能够保留图像中的边缘和细节特征,然后使用L-R算法进行图像恢复,这种改进算法通过使用基于改进自蛇模型去噪能有效地减少噪声对L-R算法的影响。实验结果表明:在信噪比和相关度方面本文算法提高了L-R算法的性能,可用于含噪声的图像复原。     

A novel blind deconvolution scheme for image restoration usingrecursive filtering

We present a novel blind deconvolution technique for the restoration of linearly degraded images without explicit knowledge of either the original image or the point spread function. The technique applies to situations in which the scene consists of a finite support object against a uniformly black, grey, or white background. This occurs in certain types of astronomical imaging, medical imaging, and one-dimensional (1-D) gamma ray spectra processing, among others. The only information required are the nonnegativity of the true image and the support size of the original object. The restoration procedure involves recursive filtering of the blurred image to minimize a convex cost function. We prove convexity of the cost function, establish sufficient conditions to guarantee a unique solution, and examine the performance of the technique in the presence of noise. The new approach is experimentally shown to be more reliable and to have faster convergence than existing nonparametric finite support blind deconvolution methods. For situations in which the exact object support is unknown, we propose a novel support-finding algorithm     

一种改进的总变分正则化图像盲复原方法

传统的图像复原算法多数采用最小均方误差作为图像复原效果的评价标准,很少考虑人的视觉感受。本文在总变分盲复原算法的基础上结合Weber定律和正则化方法,运用不同的迭代表达式：在模糊辨识阶段,采用总变分正则化算法进行辨识;在图像复原阶段,采用Weber定律和正则化方法相结合。正则化的选择充分考虑图像的细节保持和边缘增强。实验结果采用基于人眼视觉感受的图像评价标准来验证。实验证明该算法在未知点扩散函数的情况下不但能有效的抑制噪声和消除纹波现象,而且还能有较好的视觉效果。

基于图像分解的图像修复算法

针对传统变分模型在修复图像时易产生“阶梯效应”与细节模糊等问题,提出了一种基于图像分解的自适应二阶总广义变分和分数阶变分的图像修复算法。首先将待修复的目标图像分解为卡通部分与纹理部分,其中卡通对应目标图像的低、中频部分,因此利用抑制“阶梯效应”较好的二阶总广义变分模型对其进行修复;纹理对应其高频部分,因此利用对细节部分有增强效果的分数阶变分模型对其进行修复。由于文中所提到的修复模型均与线性鞍点结构下求取最优值的模型类似,因此在算法上均采用基于预解式的原始对偶算法对新模型进行求解。另外,为了取得更好的修复效果,文中设计了一个边缘指示算子来自适应地控制新模型的扩散,以更好地保护修复图像的边缘细节。实验结果表明:相比传统的TV、TGV修复模型,新模型的修复效果在主观视觉上显得更加自然,且在峰值信噪比与相关系数等客观评价指标上均有提高。
