News

2026.09 We have released the RAW files of RealBlur and RealBlur-Tele. Feel free to use or reprocess them.

2022.10 Related work, Realistic Blur Synthesis for Learning Image Deblurring (real-world blur dataset and blur synthesis pipeline) is accepted by ECCV2022. Code and dataset are available at RSBlur github.

Download

Dataset [Hugging Face] [Google Drive]

1. RealBlur: A real-world blur dataset captured with a Sony A7R3.
2. RealBlur-Tele: A real-world blur dataset captured with a Sony A7R3 and a telephoto lens.
3. BSD-B: A synthetic blur dataset generated using blur kernels.

Download the RealBlur dataset using the links above. To reproduce the training setup in our paper, also download BSD-B and GoPro.

Place the datasets in the appropriate directories: SRN-Deblur/testing_set/, SRN-Deblur/training_set/, or DeblurGANv2/dataset/. Refer to link_file.sh for the directory structure and file linking.

Pretrained Models [Hugging Face] [Google Drive]

Place the checkpoint files in SRN-Deblur/checkpoints/ or DeblurGANv2/checkpoints/, depending on the model.
