Bayesian inversion of seabed scattering data.
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Reverberation modeling and sonar performance predictions in shallow water require good estimates of seabed scattering and reflection as well as an understanding of scattering processes in a particular region. This talk considers the ability to resolve scattering parameters (e.g., scattering strength and roughness) and geoacoustic parameters (layer thicknesses, sound speed, density, and attenuation) using Bayesian inversion and a forward model based on first-order perturbation scattering theory and multilayer reflection coefficients. Results are considered in terms of marginal posterior probability distributions, which quantify the effective data information content to resolve scattering/geoacoustic parameters. Inversions are applied to synthetic data and to direct-path scattering measurements from shallow-water test beds. These measurements probe the seabed on an intermediate spatial scale (patch-size radius of ∼500 m for both reflection and scattering), which reduces the effects of ocean variability (associated with sound speed profile, seabed, and biologics) and uncertainty relative to long-range reverberation measurements.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
