| contents | Data-driven deep learning is considered a promising solution for ground-penetrating radar (GPR) full-waveform inversion (FWI), while its generalization ability is limited due to the heavy reliance on abundant labeled samples. In contrast, Deep unfolding network (DUN) usually exhibits better generalization by integrating model-driven and data-driven approaches, yet its application to GPR FWI remains challenging due to the high computational cost associated with forward simulations. In this paper, we integrate a deep learning-based (DL-based) forward solver within an unfolding framework to form a fully neural-network-based architecture, UA-Net, for GPR FWI. The forward solver rapidly predicts B-scans given permittivity and conductivity models and enables automatic differentiation to compute gradients for inversion. In the inversion stage, an optimization process based on the Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM) is unfolded into a multi-stage network with three interconnected modules: data fitting, regularization, and multiplier update. Specifically, the regularization module is trained end-to-end for adaptive learning of sparse target features. Experimental results demonstrate that UA-Net outperforms classical FWI and data-driven methods in reconstruction accuracy. Moreover, by employing transfer learning to fine-tune the network, UA-Net can be effectively applied to field data and produce reliable results. |
