揭示神经网络反演的收敛机制，提升地震与医学成像精度

Full-waveform inversion (FWI) estimates unknown parameters in the wave equation from limited boundary measurements. Recent advances in neural reparameterized FWI (NeurFWI) demonstrate that representing the parameters using a neural network can reduce the reliance on the high-quality initial model and wavefield data, at the cost of slow high-resolution convergence. However, its underlying theoretical mechanism remains unclear. In this study, we establish the neural sensitivity kernel (NSK) and the wave tangent kernel (WTK) to analyze their convergence behavior from both model and data domains. These theoretical frameworks show that the neural tangent kernel (NTK) induced by neural representation adaptively modulates the original sensitivity and wave tangent kernels. This modulation leads to several key outcomes, i.e., the spectral filtering effect, the gradient wavenumber modulation, and the wave frequency bias, connecting the convergence behavior of NeurFWI with the eigen-structures of NSK and WTK. Building on these insights, we propose several enhanced NeurFWI methods with tailored eigen-structures in NSK and WTK to improve inversion performances and efficiency. We numerically validate these theoretical claims and the proposed methods in seismic exploration, and firstly extend their application to medical imaging.
