Description
This is a dataset designed to train and evaluate deep learning methods for forward and inverse multi-frequency far-field wave scattering problems. In this dataset, we have pairs of 2D scattering potentials
q and scattered wave field measurements d_k, measured at several incident wave frequencies k. We define a distribution of scattering potentials that have piecewise constant geometric shapes with an unknown low-frequency background. With this dataset, one can train machine learning models to solve the forward problem q -> d_k, or the inverse problem d_k-> q. Please see our article for a formal definition of the forward and inverse scattering problems:

Also see our code repository which was used to generate the data and train neural networks to solve the multi-frequency inverse problem: https://github.com/meliao/MFISNets
Once decompressed, our dataset has the following file structure.

The measurement files are saved in hdf5 format, with the following fields:
q_cart: the scattering potentials sampled on a Cartesian grid.q_polar: the scattering potentials sampled on a polar grid.x_vals: 1d coordinates of the regular Cartesian grid for the scattering domainrho_vals: radius values of the regular polar grid for the scattering domaintheta_vals: angular values of the regular polar grid for the scattering domain. Also used as the source/receiver directions when generating measurements.seed: the RNG seed used when generating this file.contrast: the maximum contrast setting.background_max_freq: the maximum frequency parameter used when defining the random background part of the scattering potentials.background_max_radius: the radius of the disk occupied by the background field.num_shapes: how many piecewise-constant shapes were generated.gaussian_lpf_param: parameter used to build Gaussian lowpass filter that slightly smooths the scattering potentials.nu_sf: non-angular wavenumber (in space).omega_sf: angular frequency (in time).q_cart_lpf: scattering objects transformed by a Gaussian LPF, sampled on the Cartesian grid.q_polar_lpf: scattering objects transformed by a Gaussian LPF, sampled on the polar grid.d_rs: Measurements of the scattered wave field, in the original (receiver, source) coordinates.d_mh: Measurements of the scattered wave field, in the (m, h) coordinates suggested by Fan and Ying, 2022.m_vals: Coordinates of the (m, h) transformed data.h_vals: Coordinates of the (m, h) transformed data.sample_completion: array of booleans indicating whether individual samples were generated.file_completion: single boolean set to True when the entire generation script is completed.
