A Two-Phase Deep Learning Framework for Adaptive Time-Stepping in High-Speed Flow Modeling

ICLR 2026poster

We consider the problem of modeling high-speed flows using machine learning methods. While most prior studies focus on low-speed fluid flows in which uniform time-stepping is practical, flows approaching and exceeding the speed of sound exhibit sudden changes such as shock waves. In such cases, it i…

Learnability-Informed Fine-Tuning of Diffusion Language Models

ICML 2026poster

We aim to improve the reasoning capabilities of diffusion language models (DLMs). While SFT performs well for autoregressive models, its use in DLMs faces challenges. Our observation and analysis reveal that vanilla SFT does not consider learnability, i.e., what and when tokens are learned. Specific…

Orbital Transformers for Predicting Wavefunctions in Time-Dependent Density Functional Theory

ICLR 2026poster

We aim to learn wavefunctions simulated by time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT), which can be efficiently represented as linear combination coefficients of atomic orbitals. In real-time TDDFT, the electronic wavefunctions of a molecule evolve over time in response to an external excitati…

Equivariance via Minimal Frame Averaging for More Symmetries and Efficiency

ICML 2024spotlight

We consider achieving equivariance in machine learning systems via frame averaging. Current frame averaging methods involve a costly sum over large frames or rely on sampling-based approaches that only yield approximate equivariance. Here, we propose Minimal Frame Averaging (MFA), a mathematical fra…

SineNet: Learning Temporal Dynamics in Time-Dependent Partial Differential Equations

ICLR 2024poster

We consider using deep neural networks to solve time-dependent partial differential equations (PDEs), where multi-scale processing is crucial for modeling complex, time-evolving dynamics. While the U-Net architecture with skip connections is commonly used by prior studies to enable multi-scale proce…

Group Equivariant Fourier Neural Operators for Partial Differential Equations

ICML 2023poster

We consider solving partial differential equations (PDEs) with Fourier neural operators (FNOs), which operate in the frequency domain. Since the laws of physics do not depend on the coordinate system used to describe them, it is desirable to encode such symmetries in the neural operator architecture…
