In this paper, we investigate a novel learning-based method for dynamic scene deblurring. Since the inference model is formulated as an encoder-decoder, the core task has turned to learning blur-invariant hidden features from the blurred images to a great degree. To achieve state-of-the-art results in terms of both deblurring accuracy and efficiency, a simple, robust and computationally efficient deep auto-encoder is developed tailored specifically for blind deblurring, which is learned in an adversarial fashion based on use of the recent Wasserstein generative adversarial networks. Thanks to the designed framework, the new model has shown comparable or superior performance both qualitatively and quantitatively to existing state-of-the-art methods. What is more important, instead of exploiting the multi-scale strategy as previous methods, our model is just single-scale capable of achieving 6 times more efficiency than the closest competitor by Nah et al. [1], which is a more complex multi-scale deep method.
