When the noise is strong, these networks fail to simultaneously deblur and denoise; (3) While iterative schemes are known to be robust in the classical frameworks, they are seldom considered in deep neural networks because it requires a differentiable non-blind solver.

Image restoration algorithms for atmospheric turbulence are known to be much more challenging to design than traditional ones such as blur or noise because the distortion caused by the turbulence is an entanglement of spatially varying blur, geometric distortion, and sensor noise.

While existing deep-learning-based methods have demonstrated promising results in specific testing conditions, they suffer from three limitations: (1) lack of generalization capability from synthetic training data to real turbulence data; (2) failure to scale, hence causing memory and speed challenges when extending the idea to a large number of frames; (3) lack of a fast and accurate simulator to generate data for training neural networks.
