BOCCHI: A More Realistic and Challenging Benchmark for Local Motion Blur Detection with MSDCT-UNet

Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition 2026-07-11 v1

Abstract

Local motion blur detection requires pixel-level localization of blurred regions. Existing benchmarks let models rely on gradient shortcuts that fail to transfer. We introduce BOCCHI (Blurred Objects Captured across Cameras with Human-annotated Imagery), a real-captured benchmark whose sharp regions overlap the blur gradient distribution and defeat these shortcuts, and propose MSDCT-UNet (Multi-Scale Discrete Cosine Transform UNet), a frequency-aware encoder-decoder injecting multi-scale DCT priors through DCT Attention and FiLM. MSDCT-UNet ranks first in in-domain mIoU and boundary localization on BOCCHI, and BOCCHI-trained models outperform every other training source on cross-dataset transfer with only 633 training images.
