Quantum tomography as normalization of incompatible observations

arXiv:quant-ph/9806014 · doi:10.1016/S0375-9601(99)00619-2

Abstract

Quantum states are successfully reconstructed using the maximum likelihood estimation on the subspace where the measured projectors reproduce the identity operator. Reconstruction corresponds to normalization of incompatible observations. The proposed approach handles the noisy data corresponding to realistic incomplete observation with finite resolution.
