This repository provides Mueller Matrix computations for PyTorch featuring the Lu-Chipman decomposition. A reference implementation can be found in the polar_segment repo. Specifically, the infer.py file shows how a mueller matrix model is initialized and the train.py file contains a more elaborate usage for plotting image results.
