Motion deblurring with graph Laplacian regularization
Amin Kheradmand, Peyman Milanfar · Proceedings of SPIE, the International Society for Optical Engineering/Proceedings of SPIE · 2015
In this paper, we develop a regularization framework for image deblurring based on a new definition of the normalized graph Laplacian. We apply a fast scaling algorithm to the kernel similarity matrix to derive the symmetric, doubly stochastic filtering matrix from which the normalized Laplacian matrix is built. We use this new definition of the Laplacian to construct a cost function consisting of data fidelity and regularization terms to solve the ill-posed motion deblurring problem. The final estimate is obtained by minimizing the resulting cost function in an iterative manner. Furthermore, the spectral properties of the Laplacian matrix equip us with the required tools for spectral analysis of the proposed method. We verify the effectiveness of our iterative algorithm via synthetic and real examples.
