In this paper an Information‐Theoretic method for reconstructing noisy and blurry images is developed. Basically, the inverse problem is transformed into a generalized moment problem, which is then solved by an information theoretic method. This estimation approach is robust for a whole class of distributions and allows the use of prior information. The resulting method builds on the foundations of information‐theoretic methods, uses minimal distributional assumptions, performs well and uses efficiently all the available information (hard and soft data). This method is computationally efficient. A number of empirical examples are presented.
