New method ranks neural operator models without ground truth data

Researchers have developed a novel method to efficiently select the best neural operator model for deployment without needing high-fidelity reference solutions. By analyzing the low-dimensional span of candidate differences under a squared Hilbert-space loss, a single linearized response of the governing equation can score all models simultaneously. This approach accurately recovered over 99.6% of pairwise preferences and 99.0% of optimal checkpoints across various operator libraries for fluid, reaction-diffusion, and wave dynamics. The corrected physical proxy often surpassed individual best candidates, offering a reliable and efficient way to deploy scientific surrogates. AI

IMPACT Enables more efficient deployment of scientific AI models by reducing the need for extensive ground truth data.

    Shared Physics Responses Recover Hidden Rankings in Neural Operator Libraries

    arXiv:2608.20441v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Selecting the optimal neural-operator prediction during deployment is challenging when high-fidelity reference solutions are unavailable. We demonstrate that under a squared Hilbert-space loss, ranking a finite model library depends…
