Abstract
Accurate recognition of blurred images is a practical but previously to mostly overlooked problem. In this paper, we quantify the level of noise in blurred images and propose a new modification of discriminant functions that adapts to the level of noise. Experimental results indicate that the proposed method actually enhances the existing statistical methods and has impressive ability to recognize blurred image patterns.
