Astronomical Image Deconvolution: Final Result 1.2 2006/12/19 16:58:53 US/Central 2006/12/19 17:11:45.965 US/Central Brenton M. Loeffelman starbuc@rice.edu Brenton M. Loeffelman starbuc@rice.edu Final results for astronomical image processing using Weiner filtering and weighted averaging. The final estimation of the original object can be seen below; the black border on the left and bottom sides of the image was created by the image registration process. As shown in the image and below, the noise level of the image was greatly reduced. Also, the star points appear much more focused, and several stars that were previously very dim now appear more clearly in the processed image.

Final Image Final image produced by our process.

Noise Variance Change in noise variance due to image processing.
