Camera Shake Removal With Multiple Images Via Weighted Fourier Burst Accumulation

Abstract

Blur introduced in an image from camera shake is mostly due to the 3D rotation of the camera. This results in a blur kernel which is non uniform throughout the image. Hence each image in the burst is blurred differently. Various experiments were done to find the deblurred image either with single image or with multiple image. In this paper we analyze multiple image approaches, which capture and combine multiple frames in order to make deblurring more robust and tractable. If the photographer takes many images known as burst, we show that a clear and sharp image can be obtained by combining these multiple images. Also for this work the blurring kernel is unknown (blind) and also it is not found. The methodology used here is Fourier Burst Accumulation which performs a weighted average in Fourier Domain where the weights depend on Fourier spectrum magnitude. In simple words the method can be generalized as Align and Average procedure. Experiments with real camera data and extensive comparisons, show that the proposed burst accumulation algorithm achieves results faster
