Performance of Neural Operator Baselines on 'The Well' Dataset

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

The Well is a 15‑terabyte benchmark covering 16 physical simulation domains, aimed at evaluating machine learning surrogate models for complex systems. Baseline neural operator results were presented as illustrative, with minimal hyperparameter tuning and a strict 12‑hour per‑run limit. A brief hyperparameter search on the Tucker‑factorized Fourier Neural Operator, using only a single input timestep, lowered VRMSE below most published baselines on 15 of 17 tasks, showing that modest tuning can dramatically improve performance.

Towards Easier-to-Tune Training Algorithms: New Results from AlgoPerf

The paper reports on the updated AlgoPerf V1 benchmark, evaluating new training algorithms on wall‑clock time‑to‑target across nine workloads on fixed hardware. Using a self‑tuning ruleset that requires a single configuration for all workloads, Schedule‑Free AdamW achieved the best overall performance among 13 PyTorch and JAX submissions. The study also examines trade‑offs between step efficiency and runtime, finding that matrix‑preconditioned and two‑loop methods are sample‑efficient but need aggressive computational optimizations, and highlights the high sensitivity of learning rate and momentum across domains, underscoring the need for more robust hyperparameter‑tuning‑resistant methods.

Seeking SOTA: Time-Series Forecasting Must Adopt Taxonomy-Specific Evaluation to Dispel Illusory Gains

arXiv:2603. 15506v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We argue that the current practice of evaluating AI/ML time-series forecasting models, predominantly on benchmarks characterized by strong, persistent periodicities and seasonalities, obscures real progress by overlooking the performance of efficient classical methods.
