Physics-Informed Support Vector Kernels via Green-Function Analogies and Jackson-Chebyshev Spectral Design

The paper proposes a physics‑informed kernel design for support vector regression, using Green’s function analogies and Jackson‑Chebyshev spectral methods to construct a positive‑semidefinite kernel without requiring exact correspondence to a physical propagator. The resulting Jackson‑damped Chebyshev kernel provides an explicit feature map and a spectral prior tailored to structured observables. The authors benchmark the kernel on several physical regression tasks—including copper conductivity, Dirac‑like band dispersion, quartic‑oscillator energy levels, photonic‑crystal transmission, and Fibonacci‑chain transmission—using nested validation, learning curves, and comparisons to random‑forest, multilayer‑perceptron, and Nyström baselines.

Estimating Parameter Fields in Multi-Physics PDEs from Scarce Measurements

The paper introduces Neptune, a method that uses independent coordinate neural networks to infer parameter fields in multi-physics PDEs from sparse measurements. Neptune can accurately estimate parameters with nonlinear, spatiotemporal variations, outperforming existing techniques by reducing estimation errors by up to two orders of magnitude and improving dynamic response predictions by a factor of ten. It also demonstrates strong physical extrapolation, enabling reliable predictions beyond the training data.

Physics-informed diffusion models in spectral space

arXiv:2602. 09708v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We propose physics-informed spectral diffusion (PISD), a methodology that combines generative latent diffusion models with physics-informed machine learning to generate solutions of partial differential equations (PDEs) conditioned on partial observations, which includes, in particular, forward and inverse PDE problems.

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.

Fast Learning Rates for Physics-Informed Kernel Methods

arXiv:2609. 18901v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In physics-informed machine learning, a target function $u^*$ is learned from noisy value observations $y_i=u^*(x_i)+ \varepsilon_i$, together with differential information, given either by noisy observations $d_j=(Du^*)(z_j)+\xi_j$ or by a known physical constraint $Du^*=v$.
