New Version of the AIDA Deconvolution Algorithm

An updated and more stable version of AIDA, named AIDA 1.3 has just been recently released. AIDA (Hom et al. JOSAA 24 1580-1600,2007) is a de novo implementation and extension of the MISTRAL myopic deconvolution method developed by Mugnier et al. (2004) (see J. Opt. Soc. Am. A 21:1841-1854). These deconvolution algorithms have been shown to yield object reconstructions with excellent edge preservation and photometric precision on images of planetary targets collected with Adaptive Optics systems and Hubble Space Telescope.

AIDA is free and intended for further open source development (Python-based) – please help improve it; we welcome any feedback!
