We demonstrate the application of deep learning for the identification of particles, directly from their backscattered light. The particles were illuminated using a single-mode fibre-coupled laser light source and the scattered light was collected by a 30-core optical fibre. The technique enabled identification of the specific species of pollen grains with an accuracy of ~97%, even in the presence of high levels of background light equivalent to daytime sunlight. In addition, the technique determined the distance between the fibre tip and the particles with an accuracy of ± 6 µm.
