SolarFlowRefiner is a refinement‑aware flow‑matching framework designed to downscale high‑resolution surface solar radiation (SSR) fields from coarse ERA5 radiative variables and satellite channels. It first uses a conditional FlowMatch generator to predict a normalized correction to an upsampled ERA5 baseline, then trains a refiner on prediction‑conditioned states between the generator’s output and the target residual, exposing the refiner to the generator’s structured errors. The refinement objective is backpropagated through the FlowMatch sampler, enabling joint optimization of generation and correction, and experiments on an ERA5–SolarCube benchmark demonstrate consistent improvements over standalone generation and post‑hoc refinement.

PISCES is a physics‑informed convolutional autoencoder designed to detect solar‑wind transients for space‑weather early warning. Trained on OMNI solar‑wind data without catalog labels, its loss incorporates magnetic field consistency, temperature‑velocity relations, the Parker spiral angle, and temporal smoothness penalties. During inference, PISCES decomposes the anomaly score into magnetic, plasma, physics‑relation, and residual components, enabling alarms that can precede observed sudden commencements and positive sudden impulses.

SolarBench is an open global benchmark for image-based solar nowcasting that consolidates over six million sky and satellite images from 11 sites across a decade, paired with irradiance, PV output, and atmospheric data. The benchmark includes a toolbox for reproducible data access, processing, model development, and evaluation. Using SolarBench, the authors benchmark representative models, uncover a gap between average forecasting accuracy and the capture of rapid solar fluctuations, quantify predictability across cloud regimes, and demonstrate data‑efficient adaptation to new PV systems.

COMPLEX is a closed‑form, training‑free embedding for multiparameter persistence modules that provides both an upper and a lower Lipschitz bound, enabling faithful feature representations. By slicing modules along a near‑diagonal net and embedding each slice with the certified PLACE/PALACE landmark map, the method guarantees that separated modules remain separated in the embedding. On Orbit benchmarks and molecular graph tasks, COMPLEX achieves state‑of‑the‑art accuracy, outperforming existing landmark, transformer, and graph‑based approaches.
