| contents | Efficient onboard multi-field sparse reconstruction is essential for the autonomous operation of aerospace vehicles. While existing deep learning models exhibit promise for single-field reconstruction, deploying multiple independent models leads to prohibitive model size growth and fails to exploit cross-field correlations, particularly under few-shot conditions. To address these challenges, we first propose a lightweight multi-task Fourier neural operator (MTL-FNO), an end-to-end joint training framework based on hard parameter sharing. In each layer, the parameters are divided into shared and task-specific components to capture common features across fields while preserving task-specific characteristics. Moreover, the task-specific fine-tuning parameters are implemented as low-rank terms, achieving substantial model compression. Second, to address the difficulty of co-optimizing shared and task-specific parameters along with their real and imaginary parts, we revisit the FNO's spectral weight from a polar-form perspective and devise a physically meaningful decoupled optimization scheme. Specifically, we apply polar decomposition to slice-wise disentangle the spectral weight into a unitary tensor encoding phase information and a positive semi-definite tensor characterizing amplitude. By decoupling the optimization of phase and amplitude, our method can effectively mitigate tasks conflict. Meanwhile, to preserve unitary geometric fidelity during training, the Cayley transform is introduced to reparameterize the unitary tensor, converting the constrained optimization problem to an unconstrained one. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed method under few-shot conditions is validated on two representative engineering cases. Results show that MTL-FNO achieves accuracy comparable to or even surpassing that of standard FNO, while reducing total model size by 76% and 60%, respectively. |
