Embodiment Construction

[0056] The technical method of the present invention includes the following parts: establishing an image degradation model, estimating a potentially sharp image, selecting a structure-preserving gradient subset, and estimating a blur kernel. details as follows:

[0057] 1) Establish an image degradation model

[0058] A degradation model is established for the input blurred image, and the potential image gradient and blur kernel are constrained at the same time, and the blur kernel and the potential clear image are simultaneously solved by alternate iterations.

[0059] 2) Estimation of potentially sharp images

[0060] According to the degradation model of the image, at each step of the iterative solution, fix the blur kernel and add L to the latent image gradient 1 Regularization constraints are introduced, and variables are introduced to solve the latent image using iterative re-weighted least squares (IRLS), and obtain the intermediate latent image result sequence when t...

Abstract

The invention discloses a blind image restoration method based on fuzzy kernel estimation iterative structure preservation. The method firstly extracts the change characteristics of the latent image sequence in the kernel estimation iteration, and performs difference calculation on the latent image results of two adjacent iterations to obtain the image Sequence difference result map; Threshold selection is performed according to the difference result, and the favorable structure in each image block is screened out by dividing the difference image into blocks; For the gradient map of the current potential image, the favorable structure of the image is extracted according to the screening result Gradients to obtain a subset of image gradients; then based on the extracted image gradients, estimate the blur kernel to obtain more accurate estimation results. The present invention can well restore clear images with more details. Experiments show that compared with the original blurred image, PSNR and SSIM of the image restored by the present invention are increased by 15% and 37.3%.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of image processing, and relates to an image blind restoration method, in particular to an image blind restoration method based on fuzzy kernel estimation iterative structure preservation. Background technique [0002] The quality of image blind restoration depends on the quality of the estimated blur kernel. In order to estimate the blur kernel more accurately, it is necessary to find useful structural information for kernel estimation in the image. Existing image restoration methods are mainly based on image priors and methods based on image salient edge extraction to find favorable structures in images.
