... Up: Data Analysis and Processing Techniques . ... Also, a method for quality control of CCD observations is suggested. ... Everyone who observes a celestial object using a CCD detects moving celestial objects as a ``by product''. ... We hope that our investigations may be useful for near-Earth space control and also for searches of the moving celestial objects through analysis of old and new CCD frames obtained at any amateur or professional astronomical observatory. ...

Next: Regularization in the Up: Deconvolution Previous: Deconvolution . Consider an image characterized by its intensity distribution , corresponding to the observation of an object through an optical system. ... is the point spread function (PSF) of the imaging system, and is an additive noise. ... This inverse problem has led to a large amount of work, the main difficulties being the existence of: (i) a cut-off frequency of the PSF, and (ii) an intensity noise (see for example [ 6 ]). ...

... The algorithm has been successfully applied to both real and simulated astronomical data (Jefferies , 1993; Jefferies 1993) and its ability to accurately preserve photometry in the observed image has been demonstrated. ... In order to investigate the algorithm's performance without the influence of detector and photon noise we took the ``truth'' data set and convolved it with the given PSF to generate a noiseless image. ... The restored object and the two restored PSF's are shown in Fig. ...
