This talk presents a new estimation method for mapping dark matter density from observed CMB intensity and polarization fields. Our method uses Bayesian techniques to estimate the average curvature of the lensing gravitational potential over small local regions. These local curvatures are then used to construct an estimate of a low pass filter of the projected dark matter density. By utilizing...
