• Abstract: This review explores the integration of deep learning (DL) with full-waveform inversion (FWI) for enhanced seismic imaging and subsurface characterization. It covers FWI and DL fundamentals, geophysical applications (velocity estimation, deconvolution, tomography), and challenges (model complexity, data quality). The review also outlines future research directions, including hybrid, generative, and physics-informed models for improved accuracy, efficiency, and reliability in subsurface property estimation. The synergy between DL and FWI has the potential to transform geophysics, providing new insights into Earth's subsurface.
