IceCube is a neutrino observatory deployed in the glacial ice at the geographic South Pole. The $\nu_\mu$ energy unfolding described in this paper is based on data taken with IceCube in its 79-string configuration. A sample of muon neutrino CC interactions, with a purity of 99.5\%, was selected by means of a multivariate classification process based on a random forest. The subsequent unfolding was performed using the software \truee. The resulting spectrum covers an E$\nu$-range of more than four orders of magnitude from 125 GeV to 3.2 PeV. Compared to the Honda 2006 model, the energy spectrum shows an excess of more than $1.9\,\sigma$ in four adjacent bins for neutrino energies E\nu > 177.8 TeV. The obtained spectrum is fully compatible with previous measurements of the atmospheric neutrino flux and recent IceCube measurements of a flux of high-energy astrophysical neutrinos.

Comments: 14 pages, 9 figures, for some reason the references did not display correctly, but there was no way to use bibtex when I processed the file, hope this works out, otherwise please let me know asap. Thanks!
