Reference github repository for the paper "Learning to Reduce Defocus Blur by Realistically Modeling Dual-Pixel Data". We propose a procedure to generate realistic DP data synthetically. Our synthesis approach mimics the optical image formation found on DP sensors and can be applied to virtual scenes rendered with standard computer software. Leveraging these realistic synthetic DP images, we introduce a new recurrent convolutional network (RCN) architecture that can improve defocus deblurring results and is suitable for use with single-frame and multi-frame data captured by DP sensors.

Reference github repository for the paper "Improving Single-Image Defocus Deblurring: How Dual-Pixel Images Help Through Multi-Task Learning". We propose a single-image deblurring network that incorporates the two sub-aperture views into a multitask framework. Specifically, we show that jointly learning to predict the two DP views from a single blurry input image improves the network’s ability to learn to deblur the image. Our experiments show this multi-task strategy achieves +1dB PSNR improvement over state-of-the-art defocus deblurring methods. In addition, our multi-task framework allows a
