TRIE: An Evaluation Framework for Stochastic PDE Surrogates

Bharat Srikishan, Javier E. Santos, Nikhil Muralidhar +1

Many scientific systems exhibit uncertainty from stochastic forcing, unresolved degrees of freedom, or imperfect observations, making reliable surrogate forecasting fundamentally d…

In-context learning enables continental-scale subsurface temperature prediction from sparse local observations

Daniel O'Malley, Christopher W. Johnson, Javier E. Santos +10

Continental-scale knowledge of subsurface temperature is limited by the cost and sparsity of borehole measurements, but such information is essential for geothermal resource assess…

Are We Really Learning the Score Function? Reinterpreting Diffusion Models Through Wasserstein Gradient Flow Matching

An B. Vuong, Michael T. McCann, Javier E. Santos +1

Diffusion models are commonly interpreted as learning the score function, i.e., the gradient of the log-density of noisy data. However, this assumption implies that the target of l…

Discrete Spatial Diffusion: Intensity-Preserving Diffusion Modeling

Javier E. Santos, Agnese Marcato, Roman Colman +2

Generative diffusion models have achieved remarkable success in producing high-quality images. However, these models typically operate in continuous intensity spaces, diffusing ind…

Using Ornstein-Uhlenbeck Process to understand Denoising Diffusion Probabilistic Model and its Noise Schedules

Javier E. Santos, Yen Ting Lin

The aim of this short note is to show that Denoising Diffusion Probabilistic Model DDPM, a non-homogeneous discrete-time Markov process, can be represented by a time-homogeneous co…

Characterizing the impacts of multi-scale heterogeneity on solute transport in fracture networks

Matthew R. Sweeney, Jeffrey D. Hyman, Daniel O'Malley +4

We model flow and transport in three-dimensional fracture networks with varying degrees of fracture-to-fracture aperture/permeability heterogeneity and network density to show how…
