Abstract

Motion deblurring problems are considered, however, as additional difficulty we consider that the motion occurs in front of a still background. First we propose a model for the formation of this kind of partly blurred images which involve four unknown quantities: The object, the background, the blur kernel and a mask that encodes the shape of the object. Then we propose variational methods to solve the deblurring problem. We show that the method performs well if three of the sought-after quantities are known. Finally we show that the method even works for real world examples as soon as the user makes a crude selection of the blurred region in the image.
