Researchers have developed a novel approach to spatial interpolation using convolutional neural networks (CNNs). This method trains on a single, partially observed field to predict values at unobserved locations, bypassing the need for explicit covariance modeling or variogram estimation required by traditional techniques like Kriging. The CNN-based approach offers a flexible, data-driven alternative capable of capturing local spatial patterns, particularly useful in non-stationary environments where classical methods may falter.
