arXiv:2602. 11626v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Learning solution operators on arbitrary geometries remains a central challenge in scientific machine learning, especially for many-query simulation, physics-informed learning, and evolving geometries requiring accurate, geometry-aware predictions at arbitrary spatial locations.

arXiv:2606. 29440v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Repeatedly solving parametric PDEs is essential for uncertainty quantification, design optimization and inverse problems, but conventional neural operators require expensive non-convex training.

arXiv:2606. 03260v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deep learning surrogates for 3D Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) often fail to generalize across geometric transformations because they depend heavily on specific coordinate systems.

arXiv:2407. 00809v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: This paper introduces the Kernel Neural Operator (KNO), a provably convergent operator-learning architecture that utilizes compositions of deep kernel-based integral operators for function-space approximation of operators (maps from functions to functions).

Training neural networks to jointly predict mean and uncertainty estimates from noisy observations can be unstable, prompting a series of independent stabilization efforts. We argue that these interventions highlight a common underlying issue where gradient steps are poorly aligned with the geometry of the loss landscape.
arXiv:2606. 09923v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Neural operators such as the Fourier Neural Operator (FNO) have emerged as powerful surrogates for solving partial differential equations (PDEs), achieving speedups of several orders of magnitude over traditional numerical solvers.

arXiv:2606. 11650v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent advances in scientific machine learning provide a means of near-real-time solution to partial differential equations (PDEs), but lack the theoretical underpinnings of conventional simulators that support contemporary verification and validation.

arXiv:2606. 15479v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Steerable convolutional neural networks (Steerable-CNNs) guarantee SE(3)-equivariance by parameterizing kernels as linear combinations of steerable basis functions, but their deterministic nature precludes uncertainty quantification - limiting their use in settings where confidence estimates are essential.

arXiv:2505. 11766v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Neural Operators (NOs) are powerful architectures for learning mappings between function spaces.
By Haoze Song, Zhihao Li, Xiaobo Zhang, Zecheng Gan, Zhilu Lai, Wei Wang
Neural operators learn mappings between function spaces, but are typically developed with dense input-output training fields and fully observed inputs at inference. Many scientific problems require instead predicting solution fields from sparse, irregular, or partial observations under uncertainty.
