RealPDEBench: A Benchmark for Complex Physical Systems with Real-World Data

ICLR 2026oral

Predicting the evolution of complex physical systems remains a central problem in science and engineering. Despite rapid progress in scientific Machine Learning (ML) models, a critical bottleneck is the lack of expensive real-world data, resulting in most current models being trained and validated o…

Swimming under Constraints: A Safe Reinforcement Learning Framework for Quadrupedal Bio-Inspired Propulsion

ICRA 2026poster

Bio-inspired aquatic propulsion offers high thrust and maneuverability but is prone to destabilizing forces such as lift fluctuations, which are further amplified by six-degree-of-freedom (6-DoF) fluid coupling. We formulate quadrupedal swimming as a constrained optimization problem that maximizes f…

CL-DiffPhyCon: Closed-loop Diffusion Control of Complex Physical Systems

ICLR 2025poster

The control problems of complex physical systems have broad applications in science and engineering. Previous studies have shown that generative control methods based on diffusion models offer significant advantages for solving these problems. However, existing generative control approaches face ch…

How to Re-enable PDE Loss for Physical Systems Modeling Under Partial Observation

AAAI 2025technical

In science and engineering, machine learning techniques are increasingly successful in physical systems modeling (predicting future states of physical systems). Effectively integrating PDE loss as a constraint of system transition can improve the model's prediction by overcoming generalization issue…

Learn to Swim: Data-Driven LSTM Hydrodynamic Model for Quadruped Robot Gait Optimization

ICRA 2025

This paper presents a Long Short-Term Memory network-based Fluid Experiment Data-Driven model (FED-LSTM) for predicting unsteady, nonlinear hydrodynamic forces on the underwater quadruped robot we constructed. Trained on experimental data from leg force and body drag tests conducted in both a recirc

RS-ModCubes: Self-Reconfigurable, Scalable, Modular Cubic Robots for Underwater Operations

RA-L 2025

This paper introduces a reconfigurable underwater robot system, RS-ModCubes, which allows scalable multi-robot configurations. An RS-ModCubes system comprises multiple ModCube modules, that can travel underwater with 6 DoFs and assemble with each other into a larger structure with onboard electromag
