  • Patent number: 10628924
    Abstract: Method and device for deblurring an out-of-focus blurred image: first, a preset blur kernel is used to carry out blurring processing on an original image to obtain a re-blurred image. Blur amounts of pixels in an edge area of the original image are estimated according to the change of the image edge information in the blurring processing to obtain a sparse blur amount diagram. Blur amounts of pixels in a non-edge area of the original image are estimated according to the sparse blur amount diagram to obtain a complete blur amount diagram. Deblurring processing is carried out according to the complete blur amount diagram to obtain a deblurred image. In the method and device provided, since a blur amount diagram is obtained based on the change of edge information after image blurring, the blur amount diagram can be more accurate, so that the quality of a deblurred image is improved.

The adaptive voltage generating module generates a self-compensating voltage according to its constant current source and transmits to the low-level-holding enabling terminal, so as to provide an effective voltage level to the low-level-holding enabling terminal. Because the threshold voltage shift caused by pulling-down transistors in the low-level-holding module is embodied at the low-level-holding enabling terminal, the adaptive voltage generating module generates a self-compensating voltage with its constant current source according to the threshold voltage to compensate the increase of the threshold voltage.
