Blind image deblurring is an important topic which is widely used in many research fields such as photography, optics, astronomy, medical images, monitoring, military and so on. Although many algorithms have been proposed to improve the deblurring result in the past years, most of them cannot perform perfectly in some challenging cases. This study presents a novel blind deblurring method based on an adaptive weighted total variation (TV) algorithm. The blur kernel estimation is based on the image structure, the sparsity and continuity prior of point spread function is also taken into account. To get better effect of removing the ringing artefacts, adaptive weight calculated according to the property of the higher‐order partial derivatives in the local image is proposed in TV algorithm to alleviate the ill‐posed inverse problem and stabilise the solution for latent image restoration. The experimental results prove that the proposed algorithm can suppress the ringing artefacts to a great extent in the latent image, and can get much better effect in both vision and theoretical results than traditional algorithms.
