Abstract. Clean is a matching pursuit process which has two weak points: in situations of astrophysical interest, the "clean map" is not stable in the corresponding object representation space, and the "atoms" of this representation (translated versions of the "clean beam") are not well suited for reconstructing the boundaries of the structuring entities of the object at the related resolution level. As a result, Clean must be interrupted before the best possible fit is reached. How does Wipe wipe Clean clean? First, by introducing a global regularization principle based on the concept of resolution; and second, by conducting the matching pursuit process at the level of the high-resolution basis functions of the object space.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
