Spatially incoherent light sources, such as spontaneously emitting atoms, naively require Maxwell's equations to be solved many times to obtain the total emission, which becomes computationally intractable in conjunction with large-scale…

Data-driven reduced order models (ROMs) recently emerged as powerful tool for the solution of inverse scattering problems. The main drawback of this approach is that it was limited to the measurement arrays with reciprocally collocated…
