Abstract
The Fourier-space scattered-power mapping (F-SPM) is proposed as a computationally efficient alternative to the original real-space SPM method for real-time quantitative image reconstruction with an emphasis on close-range and near-field applications. Similar to SPM, F-SPM can employ either the Born or the Rytov data approximations in a linear scattering model, resulting in two distinct algorithms. However, to exploit the complementarity of the two approximations, a strategy is proposed for their combined use in a single inversion process. The combined Born–Rytov F-SPM method consistently improves the image quality in comparison with the images generated when using either approximation separately. The improvement is most significant when the limitations of either the Born or the Rytov approximations are violated. In the cases where neither or both of these limitations are violated, the images are of comparable quality to those generated by the standalone algorithms. The proposed Born–Rytov F-SPM algorithm is verified and compared to the standalone Born-based F-SPM and Rytov-based F-SPM in examples utilizing simulated and measured data. The gain in computational speed compared to the original real-space SPM is also demonstrated.

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
