An attempt is made to improve existing versions of the maximum entropy method (MEM) and their understanding. Additional constraints are discussed, especially the T-statistic which can significantly reduce the correlation between residuals and model. An implementation of the T constraint into MEM requires a new numerical algorithm, which is made to work most efficiently on modern vector-processing computers. The entropy functional is derived from simple mathematical assumptions. The new MEM version is tested with radio data of NGC 6946 and optical data from M 87.
