Abstract: To improve the effect of adaptive optics image restoration, a deconvolution algorithm based on the improved expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm is proposed according to the EM theory. A mathematical model for degenerating the multi-frame adaptive optics images is built. The point spread function (PSF) model changed over time based on phase error is deduced. The AO images are de-noised using the image power spectrum density and the support constraints. The EM algorithm is improved by combining the AO imaging system parameters and regularization technique. A cost function for the joint-deconvolution of multi-frame AO images is given, and an optimization model for their parameter estimation is built. The image-restoration experiments of the analog images and the real AO images are performed to verify the image restoration effect of the proprosed algorithm. The experimental results show that, compared with the Wiener-IBD or RL-IBD algorithm, the iterations of the proposed algorithm is decreased by 14.3%, and its estimation accuracy is significantly improved. The model distinguishes PSFs of the AO images and recovers the observed target images clearly.
