Some take home ideas

1. Using hierarchical approaches to estimate kernel in different scales

2. Realize the importance of strong edges

3. Bilateral filtering to suppress ringing artifacts

4. RL deconvolution is good, but we've got better chioces

5. Stronger prior does a better job

6. Deblurring by assuming spatially variant kernel is a good way to go
