First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of estimating a non-uniform motion blur, the method comprising:
- receiving an input image comprising a non-uniform motion blur;
estimating non-uniform motion blur information about a blur, included in the non-uniform motion blur, in a predetermined area of the received input image; and
obtaining a latent image by removing the non-uniform motion blur from the received input image, based on the estimated non-uniform motion blur information.

Abstract
A method and apparatus for robust estimation of a non-uniform motion blur that may reduce an amount of the non-uniform motion blur information, that is, a number of homographies by estimating non-uniform motion blur information about a blur in a predetermined area, thereby reducing an amount of time needed to remove the non-uniform motion blur, and may improve accuracy and stability of the non-uniform motion blur information by estimating homographies for an input image while increasing a number of the homographies, iteratively.

21. A method for robust estimation of a non-uniform motion blur, the method comprising:
-
estimating, by a processor, homographies of an input image, the estimated homographies comprising a homography set; iteratively increasing a number of estimated homographies in the homography set; and obtaining a final image of the input image using the estimated homographies, based on a change of an error value of the homography set.
