Objective assessment to restoration of global motion-blurred images using traveling wave equations

The relative motion between the camera and the scene leads to blurring of images. By appealing to traveling wave equations, the restoration of the motion-blurred images can be achieved and a criterion of objective quality assessment can be obtained for these restored versions even without any a priori knowledge of the original image. Most significantly, this criterion actually applies to any categories of image restoration methods as long as the image blur is caused by a linear uniform motion with good sensitivity and consistency.
