The paper introduces Structured Multi-Level-Set Inversion (SMLSI), a physics‑driven neural network approach for 3‑D electromagnetic inverse scattering that represents contrast using object support and material distribution rather than direct parameterization. SMLSI employs multiple level‑sets mapped to soft‑support functions, a soft‑union operation, and trainable complex permittivities, with structure‑aware regularization to enforce binary support and coherent material regions. Numerical and experimental results show that SMLSI outperforms conventional methods like CSI and $L_{2/3}$‑FBE‑WCIE in reconstructing irregular geometries, closely spaced objects, and multiple material regions from scattered field data.
arXiv:2608. 09382v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Electromagnetic inverse scattering is a nonlinear and ill-posed problem, where accurate reconstruction is challenging due to measurement limitations, noise, and high computational costs, especially for 3-D 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.
