Abstract
Heterogeneous materials such as biological tissue scatter light in random, yet deterministic, ways. Wavefront shaping can reverse the effects of scattering to enable deep-tissue microscopy. Such methods require either invasive access to the internal field or the ability to numerically compute it. However, calculating the coherent field on a scale relevant to microscopy remains excessively demanding for consumer hardware. Here we show how a recurrent neural network can mirror Maxwell's equations without training. By harnessing public machine learning infrastructure, such \emph{Scattering Network} can compute the -wavelength light field throughout a or scattering volume. The elimination of the training phase cuts the calculation time to a minimum and, importantly, it ensures a fully deterministic solution, free of any training bias. The integration with an open-source electromagnetic solver enables any researcher with an internet connection to calculate complex light-scattering in volumes that are larger by two orders of magnitude
