The paper introduces a workflow that ranks competing geological interpretations by converting them into spatial priors and assessing their consistency with hydraulic‑head observations. Using a text‑to‑image model to generate 1600 geologic images per interpretation, a variational autoencoder encodes them, and a supervised inverse network maps head data into this latent space, producing log‑conductivity fields for flow simulation. The method is validated on a synthetic Johansen Formation benchmark and applied to two conceptual models of the Culebra Dolomite, yielding compatibility scores that align with independent evidence.

Autoregressive modelling, successful in language tasks, is applied to mineral‑exploration drillholes where lithology is revealed sequentially from shallow to deep. The authors introduce DrillBench, a benchmark of 49,671 Western Australian drillholes for next‑layer prediction and autoregressive stratigraphic generation across a graded transfer spectrum. Experiments show that spatial conditioning helps locally but fails under strong shift, while autoregressive models transfer more robustly; a backbone‑agnostic recipe combining large‑scale pretraining and spatial retrieval improves generalisation, especially in distant geological splits.

arXiv:2605. 01171v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Despite recent progress, recovering parametric CAD construction sequences from geometric input, such as meshes or point clouds, is a key challenge for design and manufacturing, as existing CAD reconstruction and generation methods are largely restricted to difficult-to-edit formats like meshes or Breps or editable simple sketch-and-extrude pipelines and low-complexity datasets.

PosteriorBench is a new benchmark that evaluates how well generative inverse solvers recover full posterior distributions rather than just a single reconstruction. It tests four physics-based inverse problems—Darcy flow inversion, Poisson source recovery, carbon capture and storage, and light transport material inference—using high-fidelity reference posteriors generated by rejection sampling and MCMC. The benchmark employs five metrics (posterior-mean error, posterior-standard-deviation error, maximum mean discrepancy, sliced Wasserstein distance, and radially averaged power-spectrum error) to assess pointwise accuracy, uncertainty, distributional alignment, and global frequency fidelity, revealing significant distribution-matching gaps in current solvers and highlighting the importance of neural operators, guidance weights, and generation noise for posterior-variance calibration.
