Journal ArticleDOI
Diluted maximum-likelihood algorithm for quantum tomography
TL;DR: In this article, a refined iterative likelihood-maximization algorithm for reconstructing a quantum state from a set of tomographic measurements is proposed, which is characterized by a very high convergence rate and features a simple adaptive procedure that ensures likelihood increase in every iteration and convergence to the maximum likelihood state.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantum inference of states and processes
TL;DR: In this paper, the maximum-likelihood principle is used to unify inference of quantum states and processes from experimental noisy data, and a generic quantum process may be estimated simultaneously with unknown quantum probe states, provided that measurements on probe and transformed probe states are available.
Book
Quantum optics and fundamentals of physics
TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss quantum optical experiments supporting quantum theory and Bell's inequalities, as well as non-classical optical phenomena and their relations, such as Photon interferences and correlations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantum-state reconstruction by maximizing likelihood and entropy.
TL;DR: A reconstruction scheme is derived where both the likelihood and the von Neumann entropy functionals are maximized in order to systematically select the most-likely estimator with the largest entropy, that is, the least-bias estimator, consistent with a given set of measurement data.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: This work experimentally resolve temporal and spectral separations between incoherent mixtures of single-photon level signals ten times smaller than their optical bandwidths with a tenfold improvement in precision over the intensity-only Cramér-Rao bound.
