Learning Metamaterial Eigenmodes with Wavelet-Encoded Fourier Neural Operators

The paper introduces a method that combines Fourier Neural Operators with wavelet-based encodings to learn and predict multiple eigenmodes of the elastic wave equation in metamaterials. By encoding PDE inputs with wavelets, the model can deterministically select eigenmodes for both continuous and binary geometries, and it explains how prediction accuracy depends on geometric discontinuities. The surrogate model achieves a three‑order‑of‑magnitude speedup over finite element analysis while maintaining high fidelity, offering a powerful tool for accelerating metamaterial design.

Spectral Gating via Damped Oscillations for Adaptive Implicit Neural Representations

arXiv:2606. 23129v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Implicit Neural Representations (INRs) have been proven successful in encoding continuous signals through coordinate-based networks, yet facing a spectral dilemma: periodic activations capture fine details but act as all-pass filters that memorise noise, while spatially compact activations regularise effectively but suffer from low-frequency bias.

When Does Frequency Decomposition Benefit Physics-Informed Neural Networks? A Preliminary Ablation Study

The paper investigates when frequency decomposition aids Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) by introducing a dual‑branch, spectrally‑gated architecture (DBSG‑PINN) that separates low‑ and high‑frequency components. Experiments on five one‑dimensional PDE benchmarks show that frequency decomposition significantly reduces error—up to 59.2% on a multimodal wave problem—when the target solution is spectrally complex, but offers little improvement on smoother problems and can even worsen performance on a simple 1D wave benchmark. The adaptive gate’s effectiveness scales with the spectral richness of the solution, suggesting it exploits frequency structure rather than adding noise.

Learning Spectrally Optimised Mesh-Free Discretisations

The paper introduces Spectrally Optimised Neural Discretisations (SpeND), a mesh‑free framework that learns discretisation weights from local stencil geometry on unstructured point clouds. By embedding discrete moment conditions into the network architecture, SpeND guarantees polynomial consistency and allows the weights to be optimised for spectral accuracy over a chosen wavenumber band, using an unsupervised Fourier‑mode loss. The resulting operators are PDE‑agnostic, perform well on Poisson, Burgers, and Navier–Stokes equations, and can reduce wall‑clock time by 3–20× compared to existing mesh‑free methods at the same accuracy.

Frequency Selective Neural Networks as a Foundation Architecture for Time Series Learning

The paper introduces the Frequency Selective Neural Network (FSNN), a new foundation architecture for time‑series learning that embeds advanced signal‑processing mathematics into its neural topology. By using a fully differentiable Wiener‑like filter bank optimized with complex‑domain backpropagation, FSNN autonomously discovers and isolates the precise physical modes of a given task, thereby avoiding the spectral entanglement that plagues CNNs, RNNs, and Transformers. Extensive evaluations show that FSNN achieves state‑of‑the‑art predictive performance, attaining 77.0 % average accuracy on the 10 multivariate UEA datasets and leading all major metrics on the imbalanced PTB‑XL ECG benchmark, while converging directly on physically meaningful frequency bands such as the cardiac QRS complex.
