In this study, a deep learning-based approach is used to address inverse problems involving the inversion of a magnetic field and the identification of the relevant source, given the field data within a specific subdomain. Three different techniques are proposed: the first one is characterized by the use of a conditional variational autoencoder (CVAE) and a convolutional neural network (CNN); the second one employs the CVAE (its decoder, more specifically) and a fully connected deep artificial neural network; while the third one (mainly used as a comparison) uses a CNN directly operating on the available data without the use of the CVAE. These methods are applied to the magnetostatic problem outlined in the TEAM 35 benchmark problem, and a comparative analysis between them is conducted.
