arXiv:2605. 23967v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In biological systems, sensing is not performed by the brain alone: the body deforms, vibrates, and filters external stimuli before they are transduced into neural signals.

CertMix: Certified, Data-Efficient Metamaterial Design by Affine Mixing of Aligned Neural-Implicit Weight Spaces

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.

Physics-Guided Sequence-Based Generative Framework for Acoustic Metamaterial Inverse Design

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.

Harnessing disorder to decouple extension and shear in kirigami metamaterials

arXiv:2607. 16583v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Kirigami turns stiff sheets into compliant, shape-morphing structures, but its reliance on periodic cut patterns comes at a cost: correlated panel rotations couple extension to shear, so stretching one axis drives a parasitic shear that cannot be suppressed, and also confine anisotropic stiffness to a narrow, discrete set of responses that cannot be tuned independently.

A Self-Evolving Agentic Framework for Metasurface Inverse Design

arXiv:2604. 01480v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Metasurface inverse design can realize complex optical functionality, but turning a target optical response into executable optimization code still requires substantial expertise in computational electromagnetics and solver-specific software engineering.

A Physics-Flavored Transformer Network for Parametrizing Contraction Dynamics of Engineered Skeletal Muscle Tissues

arXiv:2608. 03927v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Engineered Skeletal Muscle Tissues (ESMs) have become a key structure for biomedical disease modeling and pharmacological screening, yet their functional characterization often relies on simplistic metrics like peak force, discarding critical kinetic information.
