An efficient PSF construction method
نویسنده
چکیده
Image computation is a fundamental tool for performance assessment of astronomical instrumentation, usually implemented by Fourier transform techniques. We review the numerical implementation, evaluating a direct implementation of the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) algorithm, compared with fast Fourier transform (FFT) tools. Simulations show that the precision is quite comparable, but in the case investigated the computing performance is considerably higher for DFT than FFT. The application to image simulation for the mission Gaia and for Extremely Large Telescopes is discussed.

Amine Based CO2 Absorption in Membrane Contactor Using Polyvinyl Pyrrolidone-modified Polysulfone Flat Sheet Membrane: Experimental Study and Mass Transfer Resistance Analysis
Membrane contactor using amine based absorbents is an efficient technology for CO2 separation from gaseous mixtures. A novel porous polysulfone (PSF) flat membrane was prepared via non-solvent phase inversion method. The PSF membrane was modified by adding polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) to the dope solution. The fabricated membrane was used in the serpentine flow field contactor module for CO2 abs...
متن کاملScatter and Blurring Compensation in Inhomogeneous Media Using a Postprocessing Method
An efficient postprocessing method to compensate for the scattering and blurring effects in inhomogeneous medium in SPECT is proposed. A two-dimensional point spread function (2D-PSF) was estimated in the image domain to model the combination of these two physical effects. This 2D-PSF in the inhomogeneous medium is fitted with an asymmetric Gaussian function based on Monte Carlo simulation resu...
متن کاملCompensating for nonstationary blurring by further blurring and deconvolution
In many imaging systems, the point spread function (PSF) is non-stationary. Usually a computation-intensive iterative algorithm is used to de-blur the non-stationary PSF. This paper presents a new idea of using a non-iterative method to compensate for the spatially variant PSF. This method first further blurs the image with a non-stationary kernel so that the resultant image has a stationary PS...
متن کاملEfficient shift-variant image restoration using deformable filtering (Part II): PSF field estimation
We present a two-step technique for estimating the point spread function (PSF) field from a single star field image affected by shift-variant (SV) blur. The first step estimates the best-fitting PSF for each block of an overlapping block grid. We propose a local image model consisting of a pattern (the PSF) being replicated at arbitrary locations and with arbitrary weights. We follow an efficie...
متن کاملFast Motion Deblurring Using Sensor-Aided Motion Trajectory Estimation
This paper presents an image deblurring algorithm to remove motion blur using analysis of motion trajectories and local statistics based on inertial sensors. The proposed method estimates a point-spread-function (PSF) of motion blur by accumulating reweighted projections of the trajectory. A motion blurred image is then adaptively restored using the estimated PSF and spatially varying activity ...
متن کاملA POSTPROCESSING METHOD FOR SPATIALLY VARIANT POINT SPREAD FUNCTION COMPENSATION by
In medical imaging such as Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT), the point spread function (PSF) of the system is spatially variant. The current method of compensation is to model the PSF in the iterative reconstruction process of the image itself. However, this can be quite computationally expensive and may require a large amount of time to process on readily available computers ...
