Image Restoration Studies.

Abstract

This report describes various image restoration methods. Statistical estimation theory has been used for abstracting event information from noisy, blurred photographic images. A computer algorithm has been developed which produces good estimates of unresolved star fields and bar targets. Four coherent optical techniques to measure the orientation of a missile image recorded on film have been investigated. The matched filter and the binary filter techniques appear to be promising. A novel approach to real-time wavefront correction, using diffraction of light by sound waves, is described.
