Since the biaxial anisotropic scatterers have different dielectric constant components in different transverse directions, the problems faced by transverse electronic (TE) polarization waves are more complex than those of transverse magnetic (TM) polarization waves. In other words, measured scattered field information can scarcely reconstruct microwave images due to the high nonlinearity characteristic of TE polarization. Therefore, we first use the dominant current scheme (DCS) and the back-propagation scheme (BPS) to compute the initial guess image. We then apply a trained convolution neural network (CNN) to regenerate the microwave image. Numerical results show that the CNN possesses a good generalization ability under limited training data, which could be favorable to deploy in image processing. Finally, we compare DCS and BPS reconstruction images for anisotropic objects by the CNN and prove that DCS is better than BPS. In brief, successfully reconstructing biaxial anisotropic objects with a CNN is the contribution of this proposal.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s23218781","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,27]],"date-time":"2023-10-27T11:18:52Z","timestamp":1698405532000},"page":"8781","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Microwave Imaging of Anisotropic Objects by Artificial Intelligence Technology"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"23","author":[{"given":"Shu-Han","family":"Liao","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Electrical and Computer and Engineering, Tamkang University, New Taipei City 251301, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4342-6461","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Chien-Ching","family":"Chiu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Electrical and Computer and Engineering, Tamkang University, New Taipei City 251301, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1900-5907","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Po-Hsiang","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Electrical and Computer and Engineering, Tamkang University, New Taipei City 251301, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hao","family":"Jiang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Engineering, San Francisco State University, San Francisco, CA 94117-1080, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,27]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1759","DOI":"10.1029\/92JB02324","article-title":"Beyond the born and Rytov approximations: A nonlinear approach to electromagnetic scattering","volume":"98","author":"Habashy","year":"1993","journal-title":"J.
