Turbo image restoration

A new iterative processing for image restoration is proposed based on the turbo iterative principle. For this purpose, two uncorrelated component images issued from an original image are differently filtered and the pieces of information extracted from both filters are mutually exchanged in the iterative process. This scheme has achieved much better performances and reduced computational cost in restoring images with both additive and multiplicative (such as in SAR radar images) noise model.
