The Application of Constrained Least Squares Estimation to Image Restoration by Digital Computer

Hunt, B. R.·1973·IEEE Transactions on Computers

Abstract

Constrained least squares estimation is a technique for solution of integral equations of the first kind. The problem of image restoration requires the solution of an integral equation of the first kind. However, application of constrained least squares estimation to image restoration requires the solution of extremely large linear systems of equations. In this paper we demonstrate that, for convolution-type models of image restoration, special properties of the linear system of equations can be used to reduce the computational requirements. The necessary computations can be carried out by the fast Fourier transform, and the constrained least squares estimate can be constructed in the discrete frequency domain. A practical procedure for constrained least squares estimation is presented, and two examples are shown as output from a program for the CDC 7600 computer which performs the constrained least squares restoration of digital images.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
