Multiple shapes reconstruction by means of multi-region level sets

In the framework of inverse scattering techniques for microwave imaging, this paper proposes an approach based on the integration between a multiscaling procedure and the level-set-based optimization in order to properly deal with the shape reconstruction of multiple and disconnected homogeneous scatterers. The effectiveness and robustness of the proposed approach is assessed against both synthetic and experimental data. A selected set of results concerned with complex shapes is presented and discussed.
