Blind Image Restoration Via Recursive Filtering Using Deterministic Constraints

Blind Image Restoration Via Recursive Filtering Using Deterministic Constraints

ABSTRACT:

Classical linear image restoration techniques assume that the linear shift invariant blur, also known as the point - spread function (PSF), is known prior to restoration. In many practical situations, however, the PSF is unknown and the problem of image restoration involves the simultaneous identification of the true image and PSF from the degraded observation. Such a process is referred to as blind deconvolution. This paper presents a novel blind deconvolution method for image restoration. The method is flexible for incorporating different constraints on the true image. An example of the method is given for situations in which the imaged scene consists of a finite support object against a uniformly grey back- ground. The only information required are the nonnegativity of the true image and the support size of the original object. For situations in which the exact object support is unknown, a novel support-finding algorithm is proposed.
