While acquiring the image, the shaking of the image capturing equipment or the object seriously damages the image quality. This phenomenon, which degrades the clarity and the resolution of the image is called motion blur. In this paper, a newly defined function is introduced for finding the degree and the length of the motion blur. The domain of this function defined as Peak-trace domain. In The Peak-trace domain, the noise dominant region for calculating the noise variance and the signal dominant region for extracting the degree and the length of the motion blur are defined and analyzed. Using the information of the Peak-trace in the signal dominant region, we can find the direction of the motion regardless of the noise corruption. Weighted least mean square method helps extracting the Peak-trace more precisely. After getting the direction of the motion blur, we can find the length of the motion blur based on one dimensional Cepstrum. In the experiment, we could efficiently restore the degraded image using the information obtained by the proposed algorithm.

The image stabilization is the procedure of stabilizing the blurred image with image processing method. Due to easy detection of global motion, PA(Projection algorithm) based on digital image stabilization has been studied by many researchers. PA has the advantage of easy implementation and low complexity, but in the case of serious rotational motion the accuracy of the algorithm will be cut down because of its fixed exploring range, and, on the other hand, if extending the exploring range, the block for detecting motion will become small, then we cannot detect correct global motion. In this paper, to overcome the drawback of conventional PA, an Iterative Projection Algorithm (IPA) is proposed, which improved the correctness of global motion by detecting global motion with detecting block which is appropriate to different extent of motion. With IPA, in the case of processing 1000 continual frames shot in automobile, compared with conventional algorithm and other detecting range, the results of PSNR is improved 6.8% at least, and 28.9% at the most.

This paper suggests a motion compensation technique using GPS/IMU data in order to compensate for phase error caused by undesired motion of radar platform. An actual flight trajectory would be deviate from an ideal straight-constant trajectory with a constant velocity for SAR imaging, due to pitch, roll and yaw motion of aircraft caused by turbulence. This leads to blurred SAR images due to inter-pulse phase errors as well as along-track velocity errors. If the motion compensation is carried out to reduce those errors, SAR image quality can be significantly improved. Simulation results show that the motion compensation technique introduced in this paper is an effective tool to improve SAR image quality against severe motion of radar platform.

Filming of movie is not working for translating scenario of story or character's moving. Director of Photography accumulates emotion in scenario through image. The accumulation of continuation is the essence of movie. Therefore, cinematographer strives consistently to analysis scenario and to express through visual which operation of the most basis can be filming technology. Eventually, Filming of movie is based on mean of technology to show artistry work. Accordingly, searching the most fundamental of filming's technical factor considerably help to understand movie art. There are variation technology factors to expose character's emotion. And the most simple and influential try by only using the pure function of camera is utilizing shutter without supporting lighting and production design. As a result, this thesis discuss about essential and basic factors of utilizing shutter.

In this paper, an adaptive iterative algorithm is proposed for motion deblurring by using the salient intensity prior. Based on the observation that the salient intensity of the clear image is sparse, and the salient intensity of the blurred image is less sparse during the image blurring process. The salient intensity prior is proposed to enforce the sparsity of the distribution of the saliency in the latent image, which guides the blind deblurring in various scenarios. Furthermore, an adaptive iteration strategy is proposed to adjust the number of iterations by evaluating the performance of the latent image and the similarity of the estimated blur kernel. The negative influence of overabundant iterations in each scale is effectively restrained in this way. Experiments on publicly available image deblurring datasets demonstrate that the proposed algorithm achieves state-of-the-art deblurring results with small computational costs.

While acquiring images, the relative motion between the imaging device and the object scene seriously damages the image quality. This phenomenon is called motion blur. The peak-trace approach, which is our recent previous work, identifies important parameters to characterize the point spread function (PSF) of the blur, given only the blurred image itself. With the peak-trace approach the direction of the motion blur can be extracted regardless of the noise corruption and does not need much Processing time. In this paper stochastic peak-trace approaches are introduced. The erroneous data can be selected through the ML classification, and can be made small through weighting. Therefore the distortion of the direction in the low frequency region can be prevented. Using the linear prediction method, the irregular data are prohibited from being selected as the peak point. The detection of the second peak using the proposed moving average least mean (MALM) method is used in the Identification of the motion extent. The MALM method itself includes a noise removal process, so it is possible to extract the parameters even an environment of heavy noise. In the experiment, we could efficiently restore the degraded image using the information obtained by the proposed algorithm.

Recently, well-known SAR imaging algorithms have been developed to form the focused SAR images for stationary targets. In general, the conventional methods exploit the range variation only defined by the motion of radar platform and SAR geometry. However, for SAR imaging of ground moving targets, the motion of the targets induces an additional range shift, yielding the blurred SAR images. To overcome the problem, in this paper we propose an effective motion compensation algorithm operated under a multi-channel SAR, named along-track interferometry(ATI) and phase unwrapping to directly estimate the motion parameters of the targets. In simulations, 50 Monte-Carlo simulation results show the effectiveness of the algorithm in the presence of noise.

The uniform motion blur removing algorithm of Cho et al. has the problem that the edge region of the image cannot be restored clearly. We propose the effective algorithm to overcome this problem by using shock filter that reconstructs a blurred step signal into a sharp edge, and convolutional neural network (CNN) that learns by extracting features from the image. Then uniform motion blur kernel is estimated from the latent sharp image to remove blur in the image. The proposed algorithm improved the disadvantages of the conventional algorithm by reconstructing the latent sharp image using shock filter and CNN. Through the experimental results, it was confirmed that the proposed algorithm shows excellent reconstruction performance in objective and subjective image quality than the conventional algorithm.

This paper presents a superresolution demosaicing technique that can restore high-resolution color image from differently blurred low resolution images in Bayer domain. The proposed superresolution demosaicing algorithm uses an aperture mask wheel to get differently blurred low resolution images, so we just need to estimate point spread function at each frame. In addition, it does not require image registration because there is no translational motion between low resolution images. By using a rotatable aperture mask wheel, consecutive captured images provide sufficiently exclusive information for superresolution. Therefore, the proposed method can reduce the registration error between the low-resolution image as well as the calculation amount for superresolution restoration. The existing lens system of the camera can be extended to obtain a superresolution image by only adding an rotatable aperture mask wheels. Finally, in order to verify the performance of the proposed system, experimental results are performed. The proposed method showed the significant improvements in the sense of spatial and color resolution.

The Laplacian operator is usually used as a regularization operator which may be used as any differential operator in the regularization iterative restoration. In this paper, several kinds of differential operator and 1-H operator that has been used in our lab as well, as a regularization operator, were compared with each other. In the restoration of noisy motion-blurred images, 1-H operator worked better than Laplacian operator in flat region, but in the edge the Laplacian operator operated better. For noisy gaussian-blurred image, 1-H operator worked better in the edge, while in flat region the Laplacian operator resulted better. In regularization, smoothing the noise and resorting the edges should be considered at the same time, so the regions divided into the flat, the middle, and the detailed, which were processed in separate and compared their MSE. Laplacian and 1-H operator showed to be suitable as the regularization operator, while the other differential operators appeared to be diverged as iterations proceeded.
