Image enhancement by super-resolution, focus editing and exposure composition. / CUHK electronic theses & dissertations collectionJanuary 2010 (has links)
Although significant progress has been made in imaging devices during the past few decades, the photographs acquired by digital cameras are still far from perfection due to the physical limitations of hardware such as aperture, lens and sensor. This fact brings out the demand for study on image enhancement: a computational technique that aims to improve the interpretability or perception of information in photographs for human viewers. The work in this thesis mainly focuses on three tasks in image enhancement. / Finally, since the radiance of the real world spans several orders of magnitude and its dynamic range dramatically exceeds the capability of the current digital cameras, there often exist some undesirable over- or under-exposed regions in a photograph. The third part of this thesis aims at producing one great looking well-exposed image that is virtually impossible with a single exposure by compositing a stack of photos at different exposures taken with a conventional camera. Particularly, a simple but effective method is presented to describe how to take advantage of the gradient information to accomplish exposure composition in both static and dynamic scenes. Compared to conventional high dynamic range (HDR) imaging work, the proposed approach is quite appealing in practice since it is computationally efficient and easy to use, and frees users from the tedious radiometric calibration and tone mapping steps. / Firstly, since the camera sensor has limited resolution, the acquired images cannot capture the scene very detailedly. Hence, people often resort to a postprocessing technique called super-resolution (SR) to enhance the resolution of the captured images. In the first part of this thesis, two approaches are presented to address the challenging single image SR problem, which is to recover a high-resolution (HR) image from one low-resolution (LR) input. Specifically, a novel learning-based framework is designed specifically for face image SR task from the perspective of DCT domain. In addition, an efficient two-step scheme is developed to super-resolve generic image by exploiting the salient edges of the input LR image. / Secondly, due to the limitation of lens and aperture, some cameras cannot produce pleasant photographs with desired focus setting. For example, portrait photography that requires shallow depth of field (DOF) is not allowed when using the compact point-and-shoot cameras. In the second part of this thesis, a new and complete postprocessing-based focus editing system that is able to handle the tasks of focus map estimation, image refocusing and defocusing, is developed to overcome the optical limitations and create different kinds of novel photos with desired focus setting from an imperfect photo. / Throughout this work, extensive experiments on various real and synthetic image data are conducted to evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithms. / Zhang, Wei. / Adviser: Wai-Kuen Chan. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 73-03, Section: B, page: . / Thesis (Ph.D.)--Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2010. / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 116-125). / Electronic reproduction.

Generalized image deblurring.January 2013 (has links)
隨著數碼相機與移動照相設備的日益普及,現時的拍攝照片數量遠遠超過以前。數碼照相機的內在缺陷使得數字圖像還原領域得到廣泛的興趣。在本論文中,我們將研究圖像去模糊。圖像去模糊旨在從一張模糊的圖像恢復出清晰的圖像。它是一個在計算機視覺和圖形學有理論和實踐影響力的根本問題。單圖反卷積問題是一個十分挑戰的問題因為我們觀察到的信息比要恢復的信息要少。我們討論模糊核估計並分析為什麼現存的算法可以獲得成功。基於這些分析和理解,我們提出了一個創新的統一框架。該框架具有優異的圖像對模糊性能,並且只需使用很少的運算時間。這個框架還被擴展到了非均一的圖像去模糊上,並且取得與最先進算法相當的效果。 / 在現實模糊圖像中,模糊常常是非均一的,這種模糊具有更大的挑戰性。均一模糊的技術發展使得這個問題相對於以前較容易著手。在本論文中,我們對現存的相機抖動模型進行了詳細的研究並討論其中存在的一些問題。我們對相機模型進行歸納總結並且提出了基於每個平面的非均一圖像去模糊框架。基於這個框架,我們解決了一種特殊形式的模糊。這種模糊是產生於外平面運動,常見於用車載,體育和監控相機拍攝的照片。我們在具有挑戰性的網絡圖片和自己拍攝的圖片上進行測試,驗證了我們的方法的正確性。 / With the popularity of digital cameras and mobile phone cameras, much more photos are being taken nowadays than ever before. The imperfection of digital cameras arouses broad interest in digital image restoration. In this thesis, we study an important topic, i.e., image deblurring, which aims to recover a sharp image from only a blurry observation. It is one of the fundamental problems in computer vision and graphics with both theoretical and practical impact. Single image blind deconvolution is challenging since there are more unknowns than observations. We discuss problems involving blur kernel estimation and why state-ofthe-art methods work. These insights lead to a novel unified framework to achieve decent deblurring performance on publicly available datasets in faster speed. The extension of the framework to non-uniform image deblurring also achieves comparable performance to state-of-the-art methods. / Further, in real blurred images, it is quite often that blur is spatiallyvariant, which is very difficult to deal with. Advance in uniform deblurring makes this problem tractable. We make a detailed study of current camera shake models and discuss problems in these models. We also generalize the framework and propose a plane-wise non-uniform image deblurring framework. Based on it, we tackle a specific type of blur involving out-of-plane motion, which typically appears on photos captured using car, sport and surveillance camera. We validate our method on challenging photos obtained from internet and taken by ourselves. / Detailed summary in vernacular field only. / Detailed summary in vernacular field only. / Zheng, Shicheng. / Thesis (M.Phil.)--Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2013. / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 71-79). / Abstracts also in Chinese. / Abstract --- p.i / Acknowledgement --- p.v / Chapter 1 --- Introduction --- p.1 / Chapter 1.1 --- Motivation and Objectives --- p.1 / Chapter 1.2 --- Contributions --- p.5 / Chapter 1.3 --- Thesis Outline --- p.6 / Chapter 2 --- Background --- p.8 / Chapter 2.1 --- Non-blind Image Deconvolution --- p.8 / Chapter 2.2 --- Blind Deconvolution --- p.13 / Chapter 2.3 --- Non-uniform Image Deblurring --- p.14 / Chapter 3 --- Unnatural Representation For Natural Image Deblurring --- p.19 / Chapter 3.0.1 --- Analysis --- p.21 / Chapter 3.0.2 --- Our Contribution --- p.23 / Chapter 3.1 --- Framework --- p.24 / Chapter 3.2 --- Optimization --- p.28 / Chapter 3.2.1 --- Solve for k --- p.28 / Chapter 3.2.2 --- Solve for k{U+1D57}⁺¹ with l{U+1D57}+1 --- p.32 / Chapter 3.2.3 --- Final Image Restoration --- p.34 / Chapter 3.3 --- Discussion --- p.34 / Chapter 3.4 --- Experimental Results --- p.38 / Chapter 3.5 --- Concluding Remarks --- p.41 / Chapter 4 --- Forward Motion Deblurring --- p.43 / Chapter 4.1 --- Background --- p.45 / Chapter 4.2 --- OurModel --- p.51 / Chapter 4.3 --- Forward Motion Deblurring. --- p.55 / Chapter 4.3.1 --- Kernel and Image Restoration --- p.55 / Chapter 4.4 --- Implementation and Discussion --- p.58 / Chapter 4.5 --- Experimental Results --- p.59 / Chapter 4.6 --- Conclusion and Limitation --- p.64 / Chapter 5 --- Conclusion --- p.65 / Chapter A --- New Sparsity Function --- p.67 / Bibliography --- p.71
