Deconvolution and sparsity based image restoration
… scale mixture (GSM) model, which represent the heavy tailed distribution. The SMNA and KLD are designed for a more challenging task of blind image deconvolution (BID), where either no or very little prior information about the original image and blurring operator is provided. In SMNA an explicit …
