Abstract

A neural network structure, namely a warped external recurrent neural network, is disclosed for reconstructing images with synthesized effects. The effects can include motion blur, depth of field reconstruction (e.g., simulating lens effects), and/or anti-aliasing (e.g., removing artifacts caused by sampling frequency). The warped external recurrent neural network is not recurrent at each layer inside the neural network. Instead, the external state output by the final layer of the neural network is warped and provided as a portion of the input to the neural network for the next image in a sequence of images. In contrast, in a conventional recurrent neural network, hidden state generated at each layer is provided as a feedback input to the generating layer. The neural network can be implemented, at least in part, on a processor. In an embodiment, the neural network is implemented on at least one parallel processing unit.
