Every lens leaves a blur signature—a hidden fingerprint in every photo.
In our new #TPAMI paper, we show how to learn it fast (5 mins of capture!) with Lens Blur Fields ✨

The argument against regulation is always the same: “It stifles growth and jobs.”
But just as tax cuts for corporations have not trickled down, regulatory cuts have not benefited most people.
Big companies enjoy bigger profits. Working people bear the costs.
