1. 1 Removing Camera Shake from a Single Photograph Rob Fergus, Barun Singh, Aaron Hertzmann, Sam T. Roweis and William T. Freeman ACM SIGGRAPH 2006, Boston, USA

2. 2 Outline Overview Proposed method for camera shake removing Simulation results

3. 3 Image blur due to camera shake Desired imageDegraded image

4. 4 Image formation process =  Blurry imageSharp imageBlur kernel Input to algorithm Desired output Convolution operator + Gaussian noise

5. 5 Image formation process A linear imaging model is assumed in this paper, that is: Prior for blur kernel Prior for image Observation model

6. 6 Prior model for nature image (1) Characteristic distribution of sharp image with heavy tails Histogram of image gradient

7. 7 Prior model for nature image (2) Use parametric model for sharp image statistics

8. 8 Prior model for blur kernel (1) The characteristics of blur kernel are positive and sparse =  Blurry image Sharp image Blur kernel

9. 9 Prior model for blur kernel (2) Assume the probability distribution of the element of blur kernel is the mixture of exponential distributions Exponential distribution

10. 10 Model transformation The imaging model need to be transformed before we using the image gradient prior, that is:
