Abstract

Image restoration by restoring a high-frequency component of a deteriorated image. A high-frequency image information predicting and stabilizing method includes: determining a shooting area, which is a high-frequency area that includes an overly-restored high-frequency component, in an input image; predicting a high-frequency component of the input image by applying different deterioration models to the shooting area and a remaining area in the input image; and stabilizing a high-frequency component of an edge area by using an edge blur kernel determined to be parallel to an edge direction of the input image.
