The effective approximation mode based on Maximum-likelihood (ML) function proposed by Benvenuto was analyzed for astronomy image restoration
then a new image restoration algorithm with convergence faster than that of traditional ML method was proposed. In this algorithm
PSF known a priori was not required. The turbulence PSF was estimated from observed blur images to make the PSF estimation more accordance with an imaging environment. By incorporating adaptive estimation of PSF into ML restoration
an enhanced ML algorithm was presented. Additionally
the PSF was updated successively during iteration
and the ML restoration and denoising were performed alternatively in iteration. The results show that the proposed algorithm works much better than ML does. Taking the point source image for an instance
proposed method improves the image quality by 96.64%,69.26% and 25.6% respectively on the peak signal to noise ratio
mean square error and the correlation coefficient. In conclusion
the algorithm allow the iterative process in ML algorithm to converge stably and the image quality to be improved. Experiment results show that the presented method can be used routinely in astronomical image restoration.
