"From here, the data reduction process requires a combination of inputs from Q and the total intensity, I. If we only use one, we lose information about certain parts of the Mueller matrix. Specifically, measurements of I are accurate for the first row of the matrix and measurements of Q are good for the last three rows, so we use this combination of inputs to reconstruct the entire matrix. Thanfully, both Q and I can be found from a single set of images, so we only need an additional data reduction calculation to get the full matrix. Let's see how effective this is with a simulated matrix."
