arXiv:2607. 23377v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The largest machine learning models in particle physics are also the most expensive to train, yet the return on scaling a given architecture cannot be estimated before that compute is spent.

The largest machine learning models in particle physics are also the most expensive to train, yet the return on scaling a given architecture cannot be estimated before that compute is spent. Scaling laws have been fit for jets, but none has yet been shown to predict the performance of models it was not fit on.
arXiv:2606. 19781v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Neural scaling laws describe how model performance improves as a power law in compute, model size, and dataset size.

arXiv:2604. 01349v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Reservoir simulation workflows face a fundamental data asymmetry: input parameter fields (geostatistical permeability realizations, porosity distributions) are free to generate in arbitrary quantities, yet existing neural operator surrogates require large corpora of expensive labeled simulation trajectories and cannot exploit this unlabeled structure.

arXiv:2606. 14813v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Jet tagging at the Large Hadron Collider increasingly relies on deep learning models trained on massive simulated datasets, leading to high computational costs and limited robustness to detector mismodeling.

arXiv:2607. 07863v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In physically dominated machining processes, experimental datasets are small, expensive, and material-specific; in this regime, data curation, evaluation design, and the form of physics integration can matter as much as the learning algorithm.

arXiv:2607. 20465v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The quality of training data fundamentally determines the capabilities of large language models (LLMs), yet no unified benchmark exists to measure how well LLMs, agents, and data-centric workflows actually prepare training data end to end.

arXiv:2606. 14373v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The workflow from particle collision to physics analysis passes through a series of reconstruction steps that are traditionally modular and disconnected, with no shared representation linking low-level detector data to high-level analysis tasks.

arXiv:2605. 29283v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recent physics foundation models claim general spatiotemporal forecasting ability, yet their evaluations often collapse performance into a single average score under a fixed training distribution.

arXiv:2607. 20002v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Time series foundation models (TSFMs) have emerged as general-purpose models for time series analysis, but pretraining alone is often insufficient for reliable downstream deployment.

arXiv:2603. 07523v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Transferring knowledge by fine-tuning large-scale pre-trained networks has become a standard paradigm for downstream tasks, yet the knowledge of a pre-trained model is tightly coupled with monolithic architecture, which restricts flexible reuse across models of varying scales.
