A Statistical Optimization Method for Sound Speed Profiles Inversion in the South China Sea Based on Acoustic Stability Pre-Clustering by Zixuan Zhang, Ke Qu, Zhanglong Li

“…Disturbance mode principal component analysis is first used to extract characteristic parameters, and then a machine learning clustering algorithm is adopted to pre-classify SSP samples according to acoustic stability. The SSP inversion experimental results show that: (1) the SSP samples of the South China Sea can be divided into three clusters of disturbance modes with statistically significant differences. (2) The regression inversion method based on cluster attribution reduces the average error of SSP inversion for data from 2018 to 1.24 m/s, which is more than 50% lower than what can be achieved with the traditional method without pre-clustering. (3) Transmission loss prediction verification shows that the proposed method can produce highly accurate sound field calculations in environmental assessment tasks. …”
