Scanning Acoustic Microscopy (SAM) — Public Tier

(3 scenes)

Full-access development tier with all data visible.

What you get

Measurements (y), ideal forward operator (H), spec ranges, ground truth (x_true), and true mismatch spec.

How to use

Load HDF5 → compare reconstruction vs x_true → check consistency → iterate.

What to submit

Reconstructed signals (x_hat) and corrected spec as HDF5.

Parameter Specifications

True spec visible — use these exact values for Scenario III oracle reconstruction.

Parameter Spec Range True Value Unit
coupling_medium_speed 1466.0 – 1508.0 1487.0 m/s
focus_depth_error -4.0 – 8.0 2.0 um
lens_aberration -0.04 – 0.08 0.02 waves
