Researchers have developed TIDAL, a novel neural network designed to reconstruct complex 3D ocean acoustic fields from sparse measurements. Unlike traditional methods that either rely solely on data or impose a full physical equation, TIDAL utilizes a physics-derived tensor representation, termed the S/c representation, as an inductive bias. This approach integrates wave physics principles without requiring specific environmental parameters, leading to improved reconstruction performance and faster inference, particularly under limited data conditions.
