The invention discloses a hydroacoustic physical neural
network construction method, and belongs to the crossing field of hydroacoustic
physics and
artificial intelligence. The core of the method is to directly realize neural network calculation by utilizing the physical propagation process of water sound
waves in a medium. Comprising the steps of hydroacoustic
sensor array deployment, multi-layer
physical mapping architecture construction and
hybrid training mechanism implementation. Deploying a sound source and an N-layer physical
cascade system to acquire acoustic signals and environmental parameters; a
network architecture embedded with an
acoustic propagation rule is constructed, a physical
convolution layer is designed based on a
wave equation, a physical activation layer simulates medium attenuation, and a
loss function adopts layered physical constraint; an in-situ
forward propagation-digital back propagation mixed training mode is adopted, and parameters are updated through a layered differentiable digital model and a layered optimization strategy. The problems that a traditional digital neural network is high in
energy consumption, insufficient in generalization ability and lack of physical interpretation are solved, and the method has the advantages of being low in
energy consumption, high in robustness and naturally provided with physical rules and is suitable for scenes such as
underwater intelligent sensing, communication, detection and
sound field simulation.
