-Description
-===========
+=================
+Outlier Detection
+=================
 
-:Classes: `jwst.outlier_detection.OutlierDetectionStep`
-:Aliases: outlier_detection
+Outlier detection uses different algorithms based on the input data type, and so is handled
+in separate steps, as follows:
 
-Processing multiple datasets together allows for the identification of bad pixels
-or cosmic-rays that remain in each of the input images, many times at levels which
-were not detectable by the :ref:`jump <jump_step>` step. The ``outlier_detection`` step 
-implements the following algorithm to identify and flag any remaining cosmic-rays or
-other artifacts left over from previous calibrations:
+#. **Image modes**: 'FGS_IMAGE', 'MIR_IMAGE', 'NRC_IMAGE', 'NIS_IMAGE'
+#. **Spectroscopic modes**: 'MIR_LRS-FIXEDSLIT', 'NRS_FIXEDSLIT', 'NRS_MSASPEC'
+#. **Time-Series-Observation(TSO) Spectroscopic modes**: 'MIR_LRS-SLITLESS', 'NRC_TSGRISM', 'NIS_SOSS', 'NRS_BRIGHTOBJ'
+#. **IFU Spectroscopic modes**: 'MIR_MRS', 'NRS_IFU'
+#. **TSO Image modes**: 'NRC_TSIMAGE'
+#. **Coronagraphic Image modes**: 'MIR_LYOT', 'MIR_4QPM', 'NRC_CORON'
 
-#. build a stack of input data
-
-   - all inputs will need to have the same WCS since outlier detection assumes 
-     the same flux for each point on the sky, and variations from one image to
-     the next would indicate a problem with the detector during readout of that pixel
-   - if needed, each input will be resampled to a common output WCS
-
-#. create a median image from the stack of input data
 
-   - this median operation will ignore any input pixels which have a weight 
-     which is too low (<70% max weight)
-
-#. create "blotted" data from the median image to exactly match each original
-   input dataset
-
-#. perform a statistical comparison (pixel-by-pixel) between the median blotted
-   data with the original input data to look for pixels with values that are  
-   different from the mean value by more than some specified sigma 
-   based on the noise model
-
-   - the noise model used relies on the error array computed by previous 
-     calibration steps based on the readnoise and calibration errors
-
-#. flag the DQ array for the input data for any pixel (or affected neighboring
-   pixels) identified as a statistical outlier
-
-The outlier detection step serves as a single interface to apply this general 
-process to any JWST data, with specific variations of this algorithm for each 
-type of data.  Sub-classes of the outlier detection algorithm have been developed
-specifically for:
-
-#. Imaging data
-#. IFU spectroscopic data
-#. TSO data
-#. coronagraphic data
-#. spectroscopic data
-
-This allows the outlier_detection step to be tuned to the variations in each type 
-of JWST data.
