Abstract: The invention relates to a method and apparatus to restore an image from its degraded form. The invention further relates to an offline training process and online image restoring process used in this method and apparatus. In the offline stage a data base with pairs of training image and corresponding degraded training image is used to generate feature vectors representing various local characteristics of pixels. The feature vectors are clustered so as to determine a dictionary of pixel classes having representative feature vectors. Later, for each pixel class sets of coefficients of restoring filters are optimized using the training images in the data base. 
     In the image restoring process feature vectors for a plurality of pixels of the degraded image are determined (S11). For each of the degraded pixels a near matching pixel class is determined (S12), which having a representative feature vector which is close to the feature vector of the corresponding degraded pixel. The degraded pixels are filtered with a restoring filter which set with filter coefficients belonging to the near matching pixel class (S13), so as to restore the degraded image. 
     The method and apparatus are applicable in many applications e.g. camera, HD/UHD TV, document scanning systems etc. to restore the sharpness of an image.
