Physics-Informed Conformal Prediction (PI‑CP) embeds PDE residuals into the nonconformity score of split conformal prediction, yielding distribution‑free prediction intervals with provable coverage that adapt spatially to physics violations. The method demonstrates consistent 89‑91% coverage across six physics scenarios, outperforming MC Dropout and Deep Ensembles, while Fourier Neural Operators (FNO) achieve superior accuracy over CNN and DeepONet. Additionally, the authors prove that FNO’s translation equivariance limits its ability to solve PDEs with Dirichlet boundary conditions, and show that adding coordinate channels can reduce error by up to 63×.

HiLNO is a hierarchical latent neural operator that builds a fine‑to‑coarse‑to‑fine latent space and incorporates multi‑scale supervision and anisotropic Gaussian attention to preserve spatial information in PDE solutions with multiscale structures. The hierarchy reduces information loss during compression, while multi‑scale supervision aligns intermediate predictions with downsampled targets, and anisotropic attention facilitates feature transfer across scales. Experiments on standard PDE benchmarks and a large‑scale automotive aerodynamics task show that HiLNO achieves competitive accuracy while cutting parameter count by 84.4% and FLOPs by 69.2% compared with LinearNO, and it generalizes effectively to unseen spatial resolutions.

The paper introduces the Local Gradient Neural Operator (LGNO), a lightweight and interpretable neural operator designed for field temporal evolution prediction and source identification in mechanical problems. LGNO leverages nonlinear gradient discretization priors and multilayer perceptron convolutional layers to learn translation‑invariant local kernels resembling discrete stencils, with a zero‑consistent stencil factorization that separates coefficient learning from field reconstruction. Experiments on a range of PDE benchmarks—including linear, nonlinear, static, dynamic, low‑ and high‑dimensional cases—demonstrate that LGNO achieves comparable accuracy to global neural operators while using fewer parameters and maintaining rollout stability across diffusion, flow, and quantum phenomena.
