Physics-Informed and Hybrid Machine Learning in Additive Manufacturing: Application to Fused Filament Fabrication

The article explores physics-informed and hybrid machine learning approaches for predicting bond quality and porosity in fused filament fabrication (FFF) parts. It examines three strategies—embedding physics constraints in the loss function, adding physics model outputs as inputs, and pre‑training with physics data—to enforce consistency with physical laws. Eight combinations of these strategies are tested, showing that integrating multiple approaches yields accurate predictions even with limited experimental data.

MatMind: A Structure-Activity Knowledge-Driven Generative Foundation Model for Materials Science

arXiv:2606. 07712v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Progress in AI-driven crystal materials science has so far been carried by narrow architectures purpose-built for individual tasks -- graph neural networks for property prediction, diffusion and flow-matching models for crystal generation -- each excelling within its niche yet unable to act as a shared backbone across the full spectrum of materials problems.

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.
