Deconvolution Algorithms<br />

• <strong>CLEAN</strong> (Högbom 1974)<br />

– assumes T(l,m) is a collection of point sources<br />

– multi-scale <strong>CLEAN</strong> relaxes this assumption<br />

• Maximum Entropy (Gull & Skilling 1983)<br />

– assumes T(l,m) is smooth <strong>and</strong> positive<br />

• Beam shape<br />

– needed to deconvolve image<br />

– atmospheric seeing can modify effective beam shape<br />
