Abstract
In this paper, we consider the scalar transverse magnetic (TM), two-dimensional, time-harmonic, lossless inverse scattering problem. The goal of this problem is to determine an unknown permittivity contrast within some domain from field measurements taken outside that domain. It is well known that this problem is both non-linear and ill-posed in the classical sense, i.e., the solution is non-unique and small changes in the measured field data may cause arbitrarily large changes in the solution [1]. At a single frequency, the illposedness of the problem remains even under linearizing assumptions e.g., the Born approximation [2]. Under such an approximation, one obtains a Fredholm integral equation of the first kind and a discretization of the monochromatic integral equation yields an ill-conditioned system as a result of the illposedness of the underlying continuous problem [1]. The result of this ill-conditioning is that one must utilize some form of regularization, i.e., a method which selects a particular solution from within a class of possible solutions by imposing additional constraints.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
