arXiv:2607. 14652v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Topology optimisation (TO) often requires repeated finite element analysis and sensitivity-based material updates, which can be costly when multiple candidate designs are needed under varying physical and design conditions.

The inverse design of physical systems governed by partial differential equations is computationally demanding due to the high dimensionality and non-convexity of design spaces. Generative models for inverse design often lack robustness and transferability, whereas evolutionary strategies are robust but struggle in high-dimensional spaces.

arXiv:2606. 09266v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Acoustic metamaterial (AMM) inverse design is particularly challenging for broadband target responses due to acoustic dispersion: a structure that matches the desired response at one frequency may deviate at others, and modifying geometry to improve one sub-band often perturbs neighboring sub-bands.

arXiv:2607. 24274v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Inverse design of three-dimensional porous media is central to applications in filtration, catalysis, energy storage, fuel cells, thermal management, and biomedical scaffolds, but remains challenging because many distinct pore geometries can share similar porosity or permeability while small structural changes can strongly affect transport behaviour.

arXiv:2607. 04123v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Inverse design of mechanical metamaterials seeks a periodic unit cell whose homogenized elastic properties meet a prescribed target, but current learning-based methods are data-hungry, mostly interpolative, and provide no guarantee that the generated design satisfies the specification.

arXiv:2606. 02179v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Surrogate models for topology optimization (TO) exhibit highly variable out-of-distribution (OOD) generalization under distribution shifts such as changing loads or boundary conditions, yet the source of this variability remains unclear.

arXiv:2512. 16275v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Automated floor plan generation lies at the intersection of combinatorial search, geometric constraint satisfaction, and functional design requirements -- a confluence that has historically resisted a unified computational treatment.
