Abstract
A data processing apparatus for processing a digital input image is configured to receive the digital input image. The digital input image includes input photon arrival-time data at input image locations. The data processing apparatus is further configured to compute a digital output image based on the digital input image by deconvolution. The digital output image includes output photon arrival-time data at output image locations. The output photon arrival-time data represent an estimate of an unblurred ground-truth of the input photon arrival-time data. The data processing apparatus is further configured to compute the deconvolution by an iterative algorithm using an update function. The update function depends on a point-spread function, a previous estimate of the ground-truth, and the input photon arrival-time data.
