Method and device with image enhancement based on blur segmentation

Abstract

A method and device for image enhancement based on blur segmentation are provided. The method of image enhancement includes: generating a blur segmentation map including indications of blur characteristics of respective pixels of a blur image, wherein the blur characteristics are in predetermined blur characteristic categories, and wherein the generating is performed by classifying the blur characteristic of each pixel of the blur image into one of the predetermined blur characteristic categories; converting the blur segmentation map into an image residual error corresponding to a blur component of the blur image; and generating the deblurred image based on the blur image and the image residual error.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
