Abstract
Performing Stokes inversion on single pixels can be difficult due to seeing and instrumental smearing. We present two different techniques to improve Stokes inversions. The first method, REGIONS, is a code that finds pixels that are likely to contain signal from the same magnetic element. The second method, mCLEAN, reconstructs a magnetogram if the point spread function (PSF) of the instrument and seeing is known.
