Experimental Results

Our algorithm is motivated by the success of variational model-based methods. It explores sharpness pixels from adjacent frames by a temporal sharpness prior (see (f)) and restores sharp videos by a cascaded inference process. As our analysis shows, enforcing the temporal sharpness prior in a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) and learning the deep CNN by a cascaded inference manner can make the deep CNN more compact and thus generate better-deblurred results than both the CNN-based methods [27, 32] and variational model-based method [12].

We further train the proposed method to convergence, and get higher PSNR/SSIM than the result reported in the paper.

Quantitative results on the benchmark dataset by Su et al. [24]. All the restored frames instead of randomly selected 30 frames from each test set [24] are used for evaluations. Note that: Ours * is the result that we further trained to convergence, and Ours is the result reported in the paper.

Quantitative results on the GOPRO dataset by Nah et al.[20].
