Physics-Guided Recurrent State-Space Neural Networks for Multi-Step Prediction

arXiv:2606. 02278v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: State-space models are traditionally based on physical knowledge, but multi-step predictions from these physical models can be poor due to model inaccuracy.

History-informed Lagrangian Neural Networks

arXiv:2608. 13215v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Forecasting the long-horizon evolution of mechanical systems from position-only observations is a pivotal yet difficult task, as hidden velocities and trajectory-specific physical properties must be inferred simultaneously.

A Multi-Resolution Finite-Volume Inspired Deep Learning Framework for Spatiotemporal Dynamics Prediction

arXiv:2607. 00460v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Predicting complex spatiotemporal dynamics in physical processes often demands computationally expensive numerical methods or data-driven neural networks that suffer from high training costs, error accumulation, and limited generalizability to unseen parameters.

Decoupled Physical Modeling and Execution for Physics Reasoning

The paper introduces a framework that separates physical modeling from execution in physics reasoning tasks. It uses a two‑stage post‑training approach: supervised fine‑tuning to build structured models and reinforcement learning with rubric‑based feedback to refine them. Experiments on PhysReason, PhyX, and SeePhys show that this explicit modeling improves reasoning performance by about 3% on average for small LLMs.

RTS Smoother-Guided Learning of Physics-Based Neural Differential Models

arXiv:2607. 15180v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Ordinary differential equations (ODEs) are widely used to model dynamical systems in physics, biology, neuroscience, and physiology, but in many applications some equations of the dynamics are unknown and only a subset of the state variables are measured.

Frequency Domain Reservoir Computing

arXiv:2606. 24969v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: While the quadratic sequence-length bottleneck of transformers has fueled a resurgence in recurrent models, effectively capturing complex dynamics requires architectures that balance efficient training with highly expressive latent states.

Physical knowledge on historical data matters more than enforcing physical constraints on the forecast

The paper introduces a Physics Informed Recurrent Neural Network (PIRNN) that simultaneously predicts target time series and unobservable intermediate physical variables, enhancing robustness and interpretability. It adapts to any physical model with multiple equations and variables, demonstrated on groundwater level predictions using the Gardenia model. Experiments on twelve real‑world datasets show PIRNN outperforming several neural network baselines and the Gardenia model, with an ablation study confirming the value of physical knowledge.
