Symbolic Machine Learning for Vapor-Liquid Equilibrium Prediction in Cx-N2 Binary Mixtures

arXiv:2608. 11255v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Accurate prediction of vapor--liquid equilibrium (VLE) for hydrocarbon-nitrogen mixtures remains challenging for cubic equations of state, particularly across broad ranges of composition and hydrocarbon chain length.

Neural Symbollic Regression Using Deep Learning and Sparse Modelling

Neural Symbolic Regression (NSR) uses neural networks as functional preconditioners to learn smooth, noise‑robust approximations of target functions in an interaction‑aware nonlinear feature space. A subsequent LASSO step extracts sparse, interpretable closed‑form expressions, while distributed hyperparameter optimization with Ray Tune and ASHA scheduling improves predictive accuracy and symbolic fidelity. Experiments on the Nguyen benchmark demonstrate that NSR outperforms SINDy and untuned neural baselines in RMSE, noise robustness, and out‑of‑distribution generalization, with ablation studies highlighting the importance of feature interactions, neural depth, and tuning strategies.

Accelerating Chemical Kinetics for Exoplanet Atmospheres using Neural Networks

The paper introduces a neural‑network based local‑box chemical kinetics solver for exoplanet atmospheres, employing a residual flow‑map architecture. It achieves microsecond‑scale inference with percent‑level accuracy across a wide range of temperatures, pressures, time steps, and compositional variations, outperforming other machine‑learning models and handling the extreme stiffness of atmospheric chemistry. The surrogate model offers a flexible, efficient alternative to classical solvers for state‑to‑state flow‑map problems in numerical simulations.

Probabilistic Symbolic Regression for Equation Discovery via Operator-induced and Regularized Symbolic Forests

The paper presents a probabilistic symbolic regression framework that models mathematical expressions as ensembles of symbolic trees, using a regularizing prior to control complexity and an Occam’s window-based posterior to capture uncertainty across plausible models. It provides theoretical guarantees on posterior concentration, including near‑parametric rates when an exact finite formula exists and oracle results under misspecification. Empirical results show the method outperforms state‑of‑the‑art competitors in predictive accuracy, symbolic complexity, and structural recovery on benchmark scientific equations and a materials discovery task.
