restoration op• Data kinds: voxel × voxel → voxel
• Call: import fullseye as fs; fs.ledger.vol_richardson_lucy(vol, psf, iterations=10, clip_tiny=1e-12) (to call the implementation directly, import volrestore; volrestore.vol_richardson_lucy(vol, psf, iterations=10, clip_tiny=1e-12); from the registry, ops3d.get("vol_richardson_lucy"))
Richardson–Lucy deconvolution of a non-negative volume by a known PSF.
*psf* is a 3-D non-negative kernel (any odd/even size smaller than the
volume; it is normalised to sum 1 internally so overall intensity is
preserved). *iterations* trades sharpness against noise amplification —
5-30 is the practical range (see the module notes on semi-convergence).
Negative voxels are refused (RL is a Poisson model) — except *rounding
dust*: values no lower than `-NEGATIVE_DUST_TOL * max|vol|` (1e-9
relative; an FFT-blurred observation typically carries -1e-16) are clipped
to 0 instead of rejected, so the module's own forward model feeds back in.
Returns the deblurred `(D, H, W)` float64 volume (non-negative).
Measured on the test scene (binary sphere pair blurred by a sigma-2
Gaussian): the RMSE to ground truth falls to 0.81x the blurred
observation's at 10 iterations and 0.68x at 50 — genuine but *gradual*,
because the residual is dominated by the spheres' hard edges, which RL
recovers slowly. What converges fast is the *forward consistency*:
re-blurring the estimate reproduces the observation almost exactly (that
is the quantity the RL update actually optimises).
