Maximum-likelihood algorithm for quantum tomography

Quantum Physics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

Optical homodyne tomography is discussed in the context of classical image processing. Analogies between these two fields are traced and used to formulate an iterative numerical algorithm for reconstructing the Wigner function from homodyne statistics.
