Event cameras differ from conventional RGB cameras in that they produce asynchronous data sequences. While RGB cameras capture every frame at a fixed rate, event cameras only capture changes in the scene, resulting in sparse and asynchronous data output. Despite the fact that event data carries useful information that can be utilized in motion deblurring of RGB cameras, integrating event and image information remains a challenge. Recent state-of-the-art CNN-based deblurring solutions produce multiple 2-D event frames based on the accumulation of event data over a time period. In most of these techniques, however, the number of event frames is fixed and predefined, which reduces temporal resolution drastically, particularly for scenarios when fast-moving objects are present or when longer exposure times are required. It is also important to note that recent modern cameras (e.g., cameras in mobile phones) dynamically set the exposure time of the image, which presents an additional problem for networks developed for a fixed number of event frames. A Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM)-based event feature extraction module has been developed for addressing these challenges, which enables us to use a dynamically varying number of event frames. Using these modules, we constructed a state-of-the-art deblurring network, Deformable Convolutions and LSTM-based Flexible Event Frame Fusion Network (DLEFNet). It is particularly useful for scenarios in which exposure times vary depending on factors such as lighting conditions or the presence of fast-moving objects in the scene. It has been demonstrated through evaluation results that the proposed method can outperform the existing state-of-the-art networks for deblurring task in synthetic and real-world data sets.
