PG - 17819-33 LID - 10.1364/OE.18.017819 [doi] AB - The higher order orthogonal iteration (HOOI) is used for a single-frame and multi-frame space-variant blind deconvolution (BD) performed by factorization of the tensor of blurred multi-spectral image (MSI). This is achieved by conversion of BD into blind source separation (BSS), whereupon sources represent the original image and its spatial derivatives. The HOOI-based factorization enables an essentially unique solution of the related BSS problem with orthogonality constraints imposed on factors and the core tensor of the Tucker3 model of the image tensor. In contrast, the matrix factorization-based unique solution of the same BSS problem demands sources to be statistically independent or sparse which is not true. The consequence of such an approach to BD is that it virtually does not require a priori information about the possibly space-variant point spread function (PSF): neither its model nor size of its support. For the space-variant BD problem, MSI is divided into blocks whereupon the PSF is assumed to be a space-invariant within the blocks. The success of proposed concept is demonstrated in experimentally degraded images: defocused single-frame gray scale and red-green-blue (RGB) images, single-frame gray scale and RGB images blurred by atmospheric turbulence, and a single-frame RGB image blurred by a grating (photon sieve). A comparable or better performance is demonstrated in relation to the blind Richardson-Lucy algorithm which, however, requires a priori information about parametric model of the blur.
