Neural Navigation Functions for Zero-Shot Generalizable Motion Planning
Benjamin D. Shaffer, Pei-An Hsieh, Brooks Kinch +2
We introduce Neural Navigation Functions (Neural-NF), a learned reactive navigation function capable of zero-shot transfer across unseen environment geometries. Neural-NF places da…

A meshfree exterior calculus for generalizable and data-efficient learning of physics from point clouds
Benjamin D. Shaffer, Brooks Kinch, M. Ani Hsieh +1
We introduce a meshfree exterior calculus (MEEC) for learning structure-preserving descriptions of physics on point clouds, and use it to build MEEC-Net, a data-efficient surrogate…

Structure-Preserving Learning Improves Geometry Generalization in Neural PDEs
Benjamin D. Shaffer, Shawn Koohy, Brooks Kinch +2
We aim to develop physics foundation models for science and engineering that provide real-time solutions to Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) which preserve structure and accur…
