چکیده

We present a Semi-Blind method for image deconvolution. This method uses a pre-processed image (via the shock filter) as an initial condition for total variation (TV) minimizing blind deconvolution. Using shock filter gives good information on location of the edges, and using variational functional such as Chan and Wong [T.F. Chan and C.K. Wong, Total variation blind deconvolution, IEEE Trans Image Process 7 (1998), 370-375] allows robust reconstructions of the image and the blur kernel. Comparison between using the L and L norms for the fidelity term is presented, as well as an analysis on the choice of the parameter for the kernel functional. Numerical results indicate the method is robust for both black and non-black background images while reducing the overall computational cost.

Semiparametric Approach to Multichannel Blind Deconvolution of Nonminimum Phase Systems

In this paper we discuss the semi parametric statistical model for blind deconvolution. First we introduce a Lie Group to the manifold of noncausal FIR filters. Then blind deconvolution problem is formulated in the framework of a semiparametric model, and a family of estimating functions is derived for blind deconvolution. A natural gradient learning algorithm is developed for training noncausa...

A Clearer Picture of Blind Deconvolution

Blind deconvolution is the problem of recovering a sharp image and a blur kernel from a noisy blurry image. Recently, there has been a significant effort on understanding the basic mechanisms to solve blind deconvolution. While this effort resulted in the deployment of effective algorithms, the theoretical findings generated contrasting views on why these approaches worked. On the one hand, one...

A Blind Multichannel Dereverberation Algorithm Based on the Natural Gradient

This paper introduces a novel blind on-line dereverberation algorithm for speech signals based on a natural gradient deconvolution algorithm. Existing blind dereverberation algorithms often employ a structure that performs speech prewhitening using LPC analysis followed by a blind deconvolution step applied to the LPC residual. Here it is shown that better performance can be achieved by respect...

PSO-Optimized Blind Image Deconvolution for Improved Detectability in Poor Visual Conditions

Abstract: Image restoration is a critical step in many vision applications. Due to the poor quality of Passive Millimeter Wave (PMMW) images, especially in marine and underwater environment, developing strong algorithms for the restoration of these images is of primary importance. In addition, little information about image degradation process, which is referred to as Point Spread Function (PSF...

Blind Deconvolution with Sparse Priors on the Deconvolution Filters

In performing blind deconvolution to remove reverberation from speech signal, most acoustic deconvolution filters need a great many number of taps, and acoustic environments are often time-varying. Therefore, deconvolution filter coefficients should find their desired values with limited data, but conventional methods need lots of data to converge the coefficients. In this paper, we use sparse ...
