Q2. What are some of the techniques that can be considered as direct techniques?
Known restoration techniques such as inverse filtering and Wiener filtering2,3 can be considered as simple direct restoration techniques.
Q3. What is the effect of whitening on motion blur?
Implementing the autocorrelation function (ACF) to all the image derivative lines in the motion direction, and then averaging them,14 will suppress the noise stimulated by the whitening operations.
Q4. What is the effect of motion blur on real images?
Since the motion blur is usually one dimensional, its effect varies according to the direction in the blurred image relative to the motion direction.
Q5. What is the effect of averag-ing on motion blur?
such averag-ing will cause cancellation of correlation properties left over from the original image, which can be different from one line to another.
Q6. What is the average ACF of the image derivative lines?
The computation of the digital ACF’s in the motion direction k (relative to the positive horizontal direction) is performed by rotating the image itself 2k° with use of the two-dimensional interpolation technique and then performing the autocorrelationoperation [Eq. (5)] on the horizontal lines of the rotated image.
Q7. What is the blurred image of Fig. 4?
The blurred image of Fig. 4(b) is obtained by blurring the original image of Fig. 4(a) with the use of a uniform motion function of 20-pixel blur extent.
Q8. What is the effect of a high-pass filter on the blurred image?
Therefore implementation of a high-pass filter (such as a simple image derivative) to the blurred image in this direction should suppress more of the image intensity than implementing it in other directions.
Q9. What is the effect of the noise on the blurred image?
The authors can see that here the capability of the phase identification decreases at higher spatial frequencies as a result of the noise.
Q10. How can the blur function be extracted from the MTF?
If the blur is causal, the PTF can be straightforwardly extracted from the MTF by using the Hilbert transform as described in Section 3.
Q11. What is the effect of a whitening filter on motion blur?
Therefore a whitening filter implemented perpendicularly to the motion direction (i.e., a filter that is not varying in the motion direction) will not affect the PSF correlation properties.
Q12. What is the blur function needed for restoration of the blurred image?
1,2,4The blur function needed for direct restoration of the blurred image can be completely described by the PSF or by the optical transfer function (OTF), which is the Fourier transform of the PSF.
Q13. What is the blurred image of a commercial sign?
The original image here was blurred according to Eq. (2) by a uniform motion function of 20-pixel blur extent and additive noise forming a 30-dB signal to-noise ratio.
Q14. What is the difference between the motion direction and the original image?
Contrary to other blur causes such as atmospheric or out-offocus effects, motion blur is usually considered as one dimensional, since during exposure time that is relatively short (in real-time imaging, approximately 1/30 s), motiondirection does not change.
