Adaptive multi-resolution Gaussian processes: Scalable exact inference with naturally data-sparse covariance matrices

The paper introduces an adaptive multi‑resolution Gaussian process framework that achieves scalable, exact inference by constructing a naturally data‑sparse covariance matrix using basis functions anchored directly to samples. By shrinking the support domains of these basis functions, the resulting matrix has limited block sizes, ensuring sparsity and enabling efficient computation of its inverse via a sparse Cholesky algorithm. The authors demonstrate that this approach yields exact inference with training cost ≠≠ O(n log^2 n) and prediction cost ≠≠ O(log^d n), while also improving predictive uncertainties through an augmented basis function.

Multi-output Gaussian process prediction of physical fields under linear equality constraints

The paper tackles the challenge of predicting multiple high‑dimensional physical fields that must satisfy linear equality constraints, a common scenario in physics‑informed machine learning. It critiques the conventional approach of deducing one field from others, showing its sensitivity to arbitrary choices and its impact on accuracy and uncertainty. To address this, the authors introduce a symmetric framework that first applies a row‑wise PCA to preserve constraints in a latent space, then trains a linearly‑constrained multi‑output Gaussian process using a specially parametrized kernel, and validate the method on population dynamics and CFD problems involving Reynolds stress tensors.

Graphical conditional generative modeling for digital twin modeling

arXiv:2606. 16219v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Digital twin modeling, including control and data assimilation under model uncertainty, often faces an open-ended fidelity problem: adding variables, data streams, and time scales can indefinitely increase model complexity, ultimately producing systems that are difficult to maintain, validate, interpret, and use for stress or safety testing.
