In this short note, we present a probabilistic perspective on the Schiffer's problem in the inverse scattering theory, which asks whether one can uniquely determine the shape of an unknown obstacle by a single far-field measurement. It is a…

The acoustic inverse obstacle scattering problem consists of determining the shape of a domain from measurements of the scattered far field due to some set of incident fields (probes). For a penetrable object with known sound speed, this…
