  • Publication number: 20230280286
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a system, comprising: one or more processors; and a memory comprising instructions, wherein the one or more processors are configured by the instructions to: receive first electromagnetic data at a plurality of frequencies; process the first electromagnetic data; and generate prediction parameters by passing the processed first electromagnetic data through a neural network trained on data corresponding to a synthetic training set, the prediction parameters corresponding to a container and contents located within the container.

  • Publication number: 20220365002
    Abstract: A method for electromagnetic imaging of containers receives uncalibrated first data corresponding to signals of a first plurality of different frequencies associated with an antenna array residing in a container having contents. The method estimates of a second data based on a computer model and simulation of signals of a second plurality of different frequencies associated with the antenna array, the second plurality of different frequencies including a subset of the first plurality of different frequencies. The method compares magnitudes, without corresponding phase comparisons, of the first and second data at each frequency of the second plurality of different frequencies. The method updates the second data based on the comparing. The method provides information about the contents within the container based on the updated second data.
