Completing an experimental nondepolarizing Mueller matrix whose column or row is missing

The authors report on an algebraic procedure, allowing for the completion of an experimental nondepolarizing Mueller matrix with a column or a row missing to a full 16-element one. The method provides a closed-form solution for the missing column or row and is illustrated on single-wavelength, spectroscopic, and imaging experimental examples.The authors report on an algebraic procedure, allowing for the completion of an experimental nondepolarizing Mueller matrix with a column or a row missing to a full 16-element one.
