Retrieval Robust to Object Motion Blur
Fast moving objects are defined as objects that move over significant distances over exposure time of a single image or video frame. Thus, they look significantly blurred. Detection, tracking, and deblurring of such objects have been studied in recent years. However, there are still no methods for robust retrieval of such objects in large image collections.
Keywords: retrieval, fast moving objects, detection, deep learning
A lot of methods that deal with fast moving objects have been proposed [1], including detection [2], tracking [4], and deblurring [3]. However, a related retrieval task has not been studied before. A general object retrieval [5] is a hot topic in computer vision, but it focuses on general objects, usually landmarks. A method that is robust to object motion blur is still missing.

The main goal of this thesis is to re-train a state-of-the-art object retrieval method to be robust w.r.t. blur.
The idea is to learn a representation that is robust to blur, and can match a blurred object to the unblurred version of it, e.g. if object query has a blurred object.
