Shrnutí:A ventilated acoustic resonator (VAR), a class of acoustic metamaterial, offers an effective noise reduction solution in urban environments, where ventilation is essential. The significant non-linearity between the VAR structure and the corresponding acoustic response poses substantial challenges to the inverse design of VAR through analytical approaches. Although deep learning has been employed to address the inverse design of such structures, conventional deep learning-based inverse design methods are constrained to parameter-defined structures, which exhibit limited design flexibility, thereby hindering the achievement of highly accurate inverse design. To address this challenge, we propose a novel inverse design framework for non-parametric VAR, composed of a dual-variational autoencoder (Dual-VAE) and iterative transfer learning method. Dual-VAE consists of structure variational autoencoder and acoustic response variational autoencoder with their latent space aligned to facilitate accurate inverse design of non-parametric VAR structures exhibiting the target acoustic response. The iterative transfer learning method is employed to enhance the inverse design performance of the Dual-VAE by progressively augmenting the initial training dataset, which consists solely of parametric VAR structures, with generated non-parametric VAR structures. The transfer-learned Dual-VAE demonstrated approximately a 32.27 % reduction in mean squared error with the target acoustic response compared to the Dual-VAE trained solely on the initial parametric VAR dataset. We present a novel approach to the inverse design of complex structures with high non-linearity by introducing the inverse design framework, demonstrating exceptional performance in generating non-parametric structures that achieve target performance.
