%D 2025 %X A novel multi-step inverse scattering technique is introduced within the contrast source inversion (CSI) framework to recover non-Born scatterers. This approach leverages a multi-resolution (MR) representation to characterize contrast sources, which are progressively reconstructed using a Bayesian compressive sensing (BCS) method. The effectiveness and stability of the proposed MR-BCS-CSI strategy are demonstrated through numerical case studies. Furthermore, comparisons with cutting-edge methodologies highlight its competitive performance. %I ELEDIA Research Center - University of Trento %K microwave imaging (MI), contrast source inversion (CSI), Bayesian compressive sensing (BCS), inverse scattering (IS) %L elediasc12912 %A Marco SALUCCI %A Lorenzo POLI %A Francesco ZARDI %A Luca TOSI %A Samantha LUSA %A Andrea MASSA %T Enhanced Contrast Source Inversion Using Multi-Resolution BCS
