In this paper, we propose a method to restore and to segment simultaneously images degraded by a known point spread function (PSF) and additive white noise. For this purpose, we propose a joint Bayesian estimation framework, where a family of nonhomogeneous Gauss-Markov fields with Potts region labels models are chosen to serve as priors for images. Since neither the joint maximum a posteriori estimator nor posterior mean one are tractable, the joint posterior law of the image, its segmentation and all the hyperparameters, is approximated by a separable probability laws using the Variational Bayes technique. This yields a known probability laws of the posterior with mutually dependent shaping parameter, which aims to enhance the convergence speed of the estimator compared to stochastic sampling based estimator. Practical results are presented with comparison to a MCMC based estimator.
