Abstract
The objective of image restoration approach is to recover a true image from a degraded version. This problem can be stated as blind or non-blind depending upon whether blur parameters are known prior to the restoration process. Blind restoration deals with parameter identification before deconvolution. Though there exists multiple blind restorations techniques but blur type recognition is extremely desirable before application of any blur parameters estimation approach. In this paper, we develop a blur classification approach that deploys a feed forward neural network to categories motion, defocus and combined blur types. The features deployed for designing of classification system include mean and standard deviation of ridgelet energies. Our simulation results show the preciseness of proposed method.
