| Summary: | Image deblurring has been a challenging ill-posed problem in computer vision. Gaussian blur is a common model for image and signal degradation. The deep learning-based deblurring methods have attracted much attention due to their advantages over the traditional methods relying on hand-designed features. However, the existing deep learning-based deblurring techniques still cannot perform well in restoring the fine details and reconstructing the sharp edges. To address this issue, we have designed an effective end-to-end deep learning-based non-blind image deblurring algorithm. In the proposed method, a multi-stream bottom-top-bottom attention network (MBANet) with the encoder-to-decoder structure is designed to integrate low-level cues and high-level semantic information, which can facilitate extracting image features more effectively and improve the computational efficiency of the network. Moreover, the MBANet adopts a coarse-to-fine multi-scale strategy to process the input images to improve image deblurring performance. Furthermore, the global information-based fusion and reconstruction network is proposed to fuse multi-scale output maps to improve the global spatial information and recurrently refine the output deblurred image. The experiments were done on the public GoPro dataset and the realistic and dynamic scenes (REDS) dataset to evaluate the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed method. The experimental results show that the proposed method generally outperforms some traditional deburring methods and deep learning-based state-of-the-art deblurring methods such as scale-recurrent network (SRN) and denoising prior driven deep neural network (DPDNN) in terms of such quantitative indexes as peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) and structural similarity (SSIM) and human vision.
