The Freeware: BiaQIm Image Processing Suite (BIPS)
The BiaQIm image processing suite comes in both binary form (executables for MS Windows, macOS and Linux) as well as source code. The user manuals are also available as a seprate download. All these resources can be downloaded from the Downloads page at the www.Bialith.com) website. The link below will take you directly to that page.

Simple Step-by-Step 2D Deconvolution with BiaQIm
The MS Windows binary distro of the BiaQIm image processing suite comes with a simple 2D deconvolution demo as standard which you can follow using a step-by-step guide. This guide will be installed with the MS Windows standard installation of the BIPS but if you would like to read it now without having to install the softare you can get the PDF from the link below.
Note for Linux users: The demo is geared around the BiaQIm GUI program that only runs on MS Windows. If you would like to follow this guide on Linux you will need to install the MS Windows BIPS_Setup.exe version of the BIPS on your system using WINE or a similar compatibility layer. I have tried this using WINE on my Linux system and it works but you need to know the following two points.
Firstly, you will not see the command window output of the deconvolution process if you start BiaQIm from the WINE programs group from your start menu. Instead you should navigate to the installed tsbin folder which will be located in the folder:
'.wine/drive_c/users/your_user_name/AppData/Local/Tadrosoft/BIPS'
You should then find the BiaQIm.exe executable and right click on it and select 'Wine windows Program Loader'. This will start BiaQIm in a 'better' way together with its command window.
Secondly, you should not open the 'DCTest' folder (that contains the test image and PSF used in the demo) from the WINE Start menu. Instead navigate there directly with your Linux file mananger program and open it that way - otherwise drag-drop of the files from there into BiaQIm will not work. You will find the DCTest folder in the BIPS folder described above. You should then be able to follow the rest of the step-by-step guide just as described in the PDF.
Note for macOS users: I do not have any macOS hardware to test this but it may be possible for you to also follow the step-by-step guide using WINE for macOS. See the notes above for Linux users for pointers on how to do this.
Note for both macOS and Linux users: The above instructions are only needed if you want to do things via the BiaQIm GUI. Once you have got the 'hang' of using the BIPS deconvolution programs you should use the native binaries compiled for your OS from the command line for maximal speed and efficiency.

DemoBlind: Blind Deconvolution of a 2D Image
This demo contains all data and batch files you need to perform blind deconvolution of a 2D image and also demonstrates the GUI capabilities of my deconvolution software to allow you to see the deconvolution as it happens (the display is set to udate every 5 iterations in the demo but this can be adjusted by you). It does not contain the deconvolution software, however, so you must first have downloaded and successfully installed the BiaQIm image processing suite before this demo will work. Read the ReadMe.txt file that comes with the demo before attempting to run it. This demo package was designed to run on MS Windows. You can run it under WINE on Linux but the updating display GUI will not be seen in that case. The ReadMe file will give more details.

Demo3D: Deconvolution of a 3D Volume
This demo contains all data and batch files you need to perform deconvolution of a 3D volume (a stack of 2D images) and also demonstrates the GUI capabilities of my deconvolution software to allow you to see the deconvolution as it happens. It does not contain the deconvolution software, however, so you must first have downloaded and successfully installed the BiaQIm image processing suite before this demo will work. Read the ReadMe.txt file that comes with the demo before attempting to run it. This demo package was designed to run on MS Windows. You can run it under WINE on Linux but the updating display GUI will not be seen in that case. The ReadMe file will give more details.

Demo1D: Deconvolution of a Sound File
NOTE: THIS IS NOT A SIMPLE DOUBLE-CLICK DEMO BUT REQUIRES YOU TO BE FAMILIAR WITH THE USE OF THE COMMAND LINE.
This demo contains all data and batch files you need to perform BOTH convolution AND deconvolution of a 1D signal (in this case a .wav sound file). It does not contain the deconvolution software, however, so you must first have downloaded and successfully installed the BiaQIm image processing suite before this demo will work. Read the ReadMe.txt file that comes with the demo before attempting to run it.
This demo also includes an additional program to convert the .wav sound file into a raw 1D signal for processing. This program is called WavtoRaw.exe and is heavily based on source code authored by WolfCoder (click here to see it) and then modified and compiled by myself for this demo.
In order to run this demo you will also need to have installed a second, third party, piece of software called SoX (SoundExchange). This is Open Source free software written by Chris Bagwell, Lance Norskog and sundry contributors. This is released under the terms of the GNU General Public License (click here to read it)
