Veracious Interpolated Measure of Angle and Length for Underwater Motion Blurred Images

The quality of the underwater image is impairing with the atmospheric conditions. In this, one of the most significant issues in recent days is due to the motion blur induced by the imaging device or by the movement of the object in underwater image quality degradation. The various parameters of the blurred image must be identified to fix the effect of blurring in post-imaging. Therefore, spectrum-based parameter estimation method is proposed. Initially, to estimate the point spread function (PSF), the angle and the length is measured from image spectrum using radon transform. Then, for the accurate estimation of PSF, Optimized Polynomial Lagrange Interpolation (OPLI) is proposed. The data were collected and analyzed in various natural and structured water bodies in Chennai without affecting the real environment. It is observed that for the underwater images collected, the proposed OPLI approach outperforms compared to few existing traditional estimation methods like cepstral, hough, and radon. Then this veracious interpolated measure of angle and length (VIMAL) is restored using modified Lucy algorithm and is evaluated which results in high performance than the existing classical state-of-the-art methods.
