Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Use Nth-order iterative degradation augmentation, increasing its order from 1 to 5 (ablation) | GIQE trained for motion deblurring · GOPRO-II (r) and GOPRO-III | PSNR: +1.47db for GOPRO-II(r) at N=1; +1.7db for GOPRO-III at N=1; increasing degradation order further improves performance | Helped |
| Use Nth-order iterative degradation augmentation (ablation) | GIQE trained for motion deblurring · GOPRO-I | PSNR: -0.01db | Hurt |
| Use average pooling for spatial compression instead of convolution (ablation) | GIQE · GOPRO-II (r) | PSNR: -0.28db | Hurt |
| Add spatial compression before attention (ablation) | GIQE · GOPRO-I, GOPRO-II (r), and GOPRO-III | PSNR: +0.18db, +0.22db for pooling and convolution-based SC, respectively | Helped |
| Replace the feed-forward network with multiscale feature extraction using convolution sizes 3 and 5 (ablation) | GIQE · GOPRO-I | PSNR: +0.25db, +0.33db, and +0.55db for size 3, 5, and both respectively | Helped |
| Add the auxiliary degradation-mask decoder (ablation) | GIQE · GOPRO-I, GOPRO-II (r), and GOPRO-III | PSNR: +0.57db, +0.15db, and +0.07db | Helped |
| Add multiscale branches and merge their features with the feature selection module (ablation) | GIQE · GOPRO-I | PSNR: +0.34db and +0.76db as we increase the number of scaled versions to 3 | Helped |
| Sharpen the ground-truth images with randomized Gaussian blur (ablation) | GIQE · GOPRO-I, GOPRO-II (r), and GOPRO-III | PSNR: +0.26db, +0.14db, and +0.08db | Helped |
| Replace Swin Transformer with CSWin Transformer (ablation) | Multiscale GIQE · GOPRO-I and GOPRO-III | PSNR: 33.05 / 25.07 -> 33.21 / 25.19 | Helped |
| Train for 100 additional epochs (ablation) | GIQE · GOPRO-I, GOPRO-II (r), and GOPRO-III | PSNR: 33.05 -> 33.37, 27.05 -> 27.11, and 25.07 -> 25.42 | Helped |
| Use GIQE instead of Uformer | Deblurring models · GoPRO | PSNR: 32.27 -> 33.48 | Helped |
| Use GIQE instead of Uformer | Deblurring models pretrained on GoPRO · RealBlur | PSNR: 30.74 -> 30.18 | Hurt |
