Doppler Ultrasound (color / spectral) L1-046
Unclaimed Principle — open for contribution
This Principle is declared in the catalog but has no reference solver, no pinned dataset, and is not registered on-chain. There is no reward pool. Submitting a cert against this Principle today will record the cert for reproducibility but pay zero PWM.
To claim it as a Bounty #7 contribution: open a PR adding (1) a reference solver, (2) ≥1 dataset pinned to IPFS, (3) updates to the L3 manifest with dataset CIDs. After verifier-agent triple-review, the founders' 3-of-5 multisig signs PWMRegistry.register() and the Principle becomes mineable.
Forward model E
Doppler Ultrasound (color / spectral): doppler ultrasound produces the measurement through a 3-node primitive DAG L.emit.acoustic_pulse -> L.doppler_autocorrelation -> int.temporal, with time-integrated exposure and additive Gaussian thermal/electronic noise. Recovery is posed as a linear inverse problem that inverts the forward operator to estimate the scene-side 2D velocity map. Difficulty tier delta=3 with effective condition number kappa_eff~10; calibration-level mismatch (angle_correction, wall_filter_bleedthrough, aliasing) sets the accuracy floor at the Omega boundary. See the forward_model field for the closed-form imaging equation.

Existence of the recovered 2D velocity map is guaranteed within the declared Omega bounds. Uniqueness holds on the measurement-supported subspace; out-of-support modes are controlled by the declared priors. Stability is moderately conditioned (kappa_eff ~= 10); angle_correction dominates the stability cliff; wall_filter_bleedthrough and the remaining mismatch parameters contribute higher-order bias terms. Additive gaussian thermal/electronic noise sets the irreducible data-fidelity floor, while mild Tikhonov or analytic inversion is sufficient at the nominal Omega point.
