  • Ion Cyclotron Emission (ICE) is a ubiquitous magnetised plasma phenomenon previously detected on virtually all large magnetic fusion devices and whose diagnostic potential for future power plants rests upon an accurate mapping of plasma parameters to spectra. This work demonstrates that the inverse problem is solved by training Time-Series Extrinsic Regression (TSER) models on synthetic ICE spectra from oblique propagation angle sweeps of nonlinear fully kinetic 1D3V particle-in-cell simulations of the magnetoacoustic cyclotron instability. Using datasets from a systematically constructed scan over reactor-relevant ranges of background magnetic field strength, density, and alpha-particle velocity pitch ($v_\parallel/|v|$) and concentration, we show that these bulk and fast ion parameters may be recovered from a JET ICE spectrum via TSER models with near real-time capability.
