Abstract

Undesirable negative image is occurred in photographs taken across partial reflections such as glass window and electronic display. Efficient removing reflections given a single image are in the spotlight in recent researches. This paper discusses and evaluates two published image reflection removal algorithms, and compares the performance of time and quality of those methods with a common dataset. As benchmarking test cases are presented, we propose to modify one of the methods to reduce the run-time with small effects on the similar image quality.
