In my talk, I will discuss recent progress in applying the concept of Fisher information to the problem of estimating system parameters in complex scattering environments, such as inside or behind a disordered medium [1,2,3,4]. Interestingly, such tools can also be successfully applied to artificial neural networks, in particular to define the performance limit of a network in extracting information from a complex system.
