A 2026 arXiv preprint reports a continually learning neural-operator surrogate that inverted 2,131,667 in-range airborne electromagnetic soundings in 24.9 seconds on one GPU. Posterior similarity was tested separately on matched comparisons involving 15 soundings, not across the survey-scale application.
