A parallel-distributed blind deconvolution method based on a self-organizing neural network is introduced. A large degraded image is segmented into smaller subpatterns. Each subpattern can be used to get a blur function. Moreover, we propose a two-step unsupervised learning method in the self-organizing neural network. The two-step learning method includes parallel learning and series learning operations. The series learning operation is similar to a typical learning operation in the self-organizing neural network. The parallel learning operation is used as a positive perturbation to let the learning operation leave a local minimum. Several improved blur functions can be estimated from the different subpatterns, and the optimized blur function is evolved by use of a genetic algorithm. As the blur function is estimated, the source image of the large degraded image can be easily restored by use of a Wiener-type filter or other deconvolution methods. Computer simulations show that the proposed parallel-distributed blind deconvolution method gives good reconstruction and that the two-step learning method in the self-organizing neural network can promote learning. Since the main computational cost is dependent on the size of the subpattern, the proposed method is effective for the restoration of the large image.
