Among their applications lies defocus deblurring, in which we focus in this paper. Following the approach of previous works, we obtain near-optimal coded apertures using a genetic algorithm and an existing quality metric. We perform both synthetic and real experiments, testing the performance of the apertures along the dimensions of depth, size and shape. We additionally explore non-binary apertures, usually overlooked in the literature, and perform a comparative analysis with their binary counterparts.I.4.3 [Image Processing and Computer Vision]EnhancementSharpening and deblurring10.2312/pt.2011113599-105
