Caption: Figure 3.

Reproduction of multiple images by our model. In each case, we delens one of the images (2.2, 7.1, and 8.2, explicitly) to the source plane and back to the image plane to compare to the other images of that system. As can be seen, the orientation and internal details of the predicted images (bottom rows) resemble those of the real images identified in the predicted location in the data (upper rows), supporting the identification.
