Coordinate-Residual Physics-Driven Neural Network for Inverse Scattering Imaging

The paper introduces a coordinate-residual physics-driven neural network (CRPDNN) for 3‑D electromagnetic inverse scattering. CRPDNN models the unknown contrast distribution using normalized spatial coordinates and a residual convolutional network, optimizing parameters by enforcing consistency between measured and predicted scattered fields. It eliminates the need for preliminary reconstruction, achieving lower relative error and significant speedups compared to existing methods, while maintaining stability under noisy measurements and showing promise in practical imaging experiments.

Inductively Scalable, Single-Step Neural Surrogates for Wave-Scattering Inverse Problems

The paper presents a method for training single‑step neural surrogates that can handle wave‑scattering problems with tens of thousands of controllable variables. By dynamically generating training examples that highlight surrogate errors and using a replay dataset with normalization, the authors achieve a surrogate that accurately simulates two‑dimensional wave scattering for up to 41,772 variables and generalizes to over 3 million variables without retraining. The surrogate is applied to forward simulations and inverse design of freeform beam splitters and gradient‑index lenses, achieving speedups up to 26.5× compared to traditional FDTD methods.

Inductively Scalable, Single-Step Neural Surrogates for Wave-Scattering Inverse Problems

The paper presents a method for training single‑step neural surrogates that can handle wave‑scattering inverse problems with tens of thousands of controllable variables. By dynamically generating training examples through gradient ascent and using a replay dataset with normalization, the authors achieve a surrogate that accurately models two‑dimensional wave scattering for up to 41,772 variables and can generalize to over 3 million variables without retraining. The surrogate demonstrates comparable or better performance than traditional FDTD simulations for large‑scale forward simulations and inverse design of photonic devices, achieving speedups up to 26.5×.

HarmoCore: Functional Latent Diffusion for Sparse Reconstruction of Oscillatory Wave Fields

HarmoCore introduces a generative prior in a compact, continuous latent space for reconstructing oscillatory wave fields from extremely sparse sensor data. It models joint real–imaginary channels using Functional Tucker cores over shared spatial bases, learns a frequency‑conditioned diffusion prior, and performs diffusion posterior sampling directly in core space. Experiments on 2D and 3D Helmholtz problems demonstrate significant performance gains with only 1%–2% sensor coverage while remaining scalable to three dimensions.
