Proposes AHDINet, an asymmetric bidirectional hierarchical network that fuses event and image features differently at low and high encoder levels for event-guided motion deblurring.
Problem
Existing event-based motion deblurring methods fuse image and event features with symmetric or unidirectional interactions at all encoder levels, ignoring that low-level and high-level cross-modal features have different complementary roles.
Approach
Uses an event-assisted edge complement module (Gaussian-blurred event confidence mask plus channel attention) at low encoder levels to inject edges from events into image features, and an image-assisted semantic complement module (channel-spatial attention plus channel-wise injection) at high levels to transfer image semantics to the event branch.
Key results
- On GoPro, AHDINet reaches 37.09 dB PSNR / 0.9820 SSIM, versus 36.70 dB for the best prior event-based method (FAEVD) in the table.
- On cross-dataset DVD (trained on GoPro), AHDINet achieves 34.34 dB PSNR, about 0.4 dB above the best prior event-based method.
- On real-world REBlur, AHDINet achieves 40.85 dB PSNR, 1.87 dB above the second-best method.

Limitations
- Real-world evaluation is limited to the REBlur dataset, which is indoor and relatively small.
- Event noise handling relies on a fixed Gaussian blur controller rather than a learned one.
