KATOsuper: Surrogate-accelerated neural topology optimization with sensitivity-consistent Fourier neural operators

KATOsuper is an objective‑agnostic framework that accelerates neural topology optimization by coupling neural‑reparameterized TO with a Sensitivity‑Consistent Fourier Neural Operator (SC‑FNO). It uses a forward_split architecture to ensure that sensitivities derived via automatic differentiation remain consistent with predicted objectives, enabling stable optimization. The method demonstrates significant deployment‑time speedups (15–110×) over MATLAB baselines while preserving optimality across 2D and 3D benchmark problems, including compliance and stress minimization, and supports zero‑shot extrapolation to higher resolutions.
