CrossZoom: Simultaneous Motion Deblurring and Event Super-Resolving.

Even though the collaboration between traditional and neuromorphic event cameras brings prosperity to frame-event based vision applications, the performance is still confined by the resolution gap crossing two modalities in both spatial and temporal domains. This paper is devoted to bridging the gap by increasing the temporal resolution for images, i.e., motion deblurring, and the spatial resolution for events, i.e., event super-resolving, respectively. To this end, we introduce CrossZoom, a novel unified neural Network (CZ-Net) to jointly recover sharp latent sequences within the exposure period of a blurry input and the corresponding High-Resolution (HR) events. Specifically, we present a multi-scale blur-event fusion architecture that leverages the scale-variant properties and effectively fuses cross-modal information to achieve cross-enhancement. Attention-based adaptive enhancement and cross-interaction prediction modules are devised to alleviate the distortions inherent in Low-Resolution (LR) events and enhance the final results through the prior blur-event complementary information. Furthermore, we propose a new dataset containing HR sharp-blurry images and the corresponding HR-LR event streams to facilitate future research. Extensive qualitative and quantitative experiments on synthetic and real-world datasets demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed method.
