Abstract.  The article offers a fundamentally new approach to solving the problems of reconstructing distorted images. If traditionally researchers try to reconstruct an unknown Point Spread Function (PSF) by some methods or, with iterative approaches, to make initial assumption about the form of PSF, then we rely on the General-purpose reference spectrum (GRS), i.e. on the knowledge of what, on average, there should be an amplitude spatial spectrum of an undistorted image. If the amplitude spectrum of the PSF distortion is alternating, then the use of the method of renormalization limitedthe (MRL) with classical GRS does not lead to a successful reconstruction. In connection with this, it is proposed to carry out the adaptation procedure for the GRS and to supply it with the automatic registration of the sign.  As a result of such a methodology, a model of the normalized image of the adaptive General-purpose reference spectrum (AGRS) is proposed. Note that there is an automatic change in the form of the General-purpose reference spectrum, and not a reconstruction of the Point Spread Function. Thus, the modifications and adaptations of the GRS proposed in our work, depending on the specific task, increase the efficiency of the procedures for reconstructing the distorted images and can be done automatically.

Key words: blind deconvolution, general-purpose reference spectrum, the method of renormalization limited.
