TokaMind: A Multi-Modal Transformer Foundation Model for Tokamak Plasma Dynamics

arXiv:2602. 15084v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We present TokaMind, to our knowledge the first open-source foundation model for tokamak plasma dynamics, based on a Multi-Modal Transformer (MMT) and pretrained on heterogeneous diagnostics from the publicly available MAST dataset.

Reliable Virtual Sensing: A Multi-Domain Benchmark for Robustness Under Sensor Failures

The paper introduces MuViS-C, a multi‑domain benchmark that evaluates the robustness of learning‑based virtual sensing models against ten common sensor failure modes, ranging from subtle drifts to catastrophic dropouts. It assesses models using average error, relative degradation, and worst‑case fragility across nine datasets from six domains, comparing six architectures (gradient‑boosted trees, convolution, recurrence, attention, and MLP‑mixing). The study finds that all models degrade under corruption, gradient‑boosted trees are most robust, and targeted robustification can improve attention models at the cost of nominal performance.
