For the first time in blind motion deblurring, we propose a sparse ResNet-block as a combination of sparse convolution layers and a trainable spatial pooler k-winner based on HTM (Hierarchical Temporal Memory) to replace non-linearity such as ReLU in the ResNet-block of SL-CycleGAN generators. Furthermore, unlike many state-of-the-art GAN-based motion deblurring methods that treat motion deblurring as a linear end-to-end process, we take our inspiration from the domain-to-domain translation ability of CycleGAN, and we show that image deblurring can be cycle-consistent while achieving the best qualitative results. Finally, we perform extensive experiments on popular image benchmarks both qualitatively and quantitatively and achieve the record-breaking PSNR of 38.087 dB on GoPro dataset, which is 5.377 dB better than the most recent deblurring method.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2111.04026v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2111.04026v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"sl-cyclegan-blind-motion-deblurring-in-cycles","repo_url":"https://github.com/jammer345/SL-CycleGAN-Blind-Motion-Deblurring-in-Cycles-using-Sparse-Learning","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"pytorch","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"deblurring","task_name":"Deblurring"},{"task_slug":null,"task_name":"Generative Adversarial Network"},{"task_slug":"image-deblurring","task_name":"Image Deblurring"},{"task_slug":"sparse-learning","task_name":"Sparse Learning"},{"task_slug":"translation","task_name":"Translation"}],"methods":[{"method_slug":"batch-normalization","method_name":"Batch Normalization"},{"method_slug":"convolution","method_name":"Convolution"},{"method_slug":"cycle-consistency-loss","method_name":"Cycle Consistency Loss"},{"method_slug":"gan-least-squares-loss","method_name":"GAN Least Squares Loss"},{"method_slug":"instance-normalization","method_name":"Instance Normalization"},{"method_slug":"patchgan","method_name":"PatchGAN"},{"method_slug":"relu","method_name":"ReLU"},{"method_slug":"residual-block","method_name":"Residual Block"},{"method_slug":"residual-connection","method_name":"Residual Connection"},{"method_slug":"sigmoid-activation","method_name":"Sigmoid Activation"},{"method_slug":"tanh-activation","method_name":"Tanh Activation"}],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
