Research paper analyzes optimal input sizing for neural field forecasting

A new research paper explores the optimal input configuration for neural surrogates used to forecast physical fields. The study, which analyzes the trade-off between spatial context (window size) and temporal memory (history length), found that for fields with local dynamics, the optimal forecast relies more on spatial correlation than temporal history. The research suggests that for surrogate design, the input window should be sized according to the field's correlation lengths, and the input budget should be split between window and history based on the model's intended lead time, as the optimal split shifts towards wider windows with increasing lead times.

    Spatial Context or Memory? Sizing the Inputs of Neural Surrogates for Partially Observed Fields

    arXiv:2610.12723v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Neural surrogates that forecast a physical field from sparse, noisy sensors read a window of nearby sensors and a history of past snapshots. Practitioners choose both by comparing fitted models with each other. Such comparisons cann…
