Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
According to an image processing apparatus includes an acquisition unit, a storage unit, and a convolution unit. The acquisition unit is configured to acquire an input image captured via an optical system. The storage unit is configured to store therein a coefficient designed through learning for each of positions of respective pixel sets referred to in a convolution such that a result of the convolution of a second image with the coefficient is brought nearer to a first image, the second image being obtained by deteriorating the first image through a predetermined deterioration process. The convolution unit is configured to read the coefficient from the storage unit correspondingly to a position of a pixel set referred to in the input image, and generate an output image by convoluting the pixel set with the coefficient.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. An image processing apparatus comprising: a storage that stores a coefficient set designed through learning for each position of pixel sets referred to in a convolution such that a result of the convolution referring to a second image with the coefficient set is brought nearer to a first image, the second image being obtained by deteriorating the first image through a specific deterioration process; and a processor programmed to: acquire an input image ca…
