Only Linear Constraints Survive Coarse-Graining: Evaluating Physics-Constrained Neural Operators on Stochastically Forced Turbulence

Michael Groom, Rafael Oliveira

A physics-informed loss adds a discretised PDE residual to the data term, but is only strictly valid if the equations being enforced are closed on the fields being fitted. This fai…

Maximising the Set-Piece Return: Optimising Football Corner Tactics with Graph Reinforcement Learning

Sean Groom, Michael Groom, Francisco Belo +4

Machine learning is increasingly employed for the evaluation of football tactics. However, existing approaches focus on characterising historical actions or analyst-specified count…

Quantile-Coupled Flow Matching for Distributional Reinforcement Learning

Michael Groom, Victor-Alexandru Darvariu, Lars Kunze +2

Unlike standard expected-return Reinforcement Learning (RL), Distributional RL (DRL) models the full return distribution, making it better-suited for uncertainty-aware and risk-sen…

Risk-Aware Reinforcement Learning for Mobile Manipulation

Michael Groom, James Wilson, Nick Hawes +1

For robots to successfully transition from lab settings to everyday environments, they must begin to reason about the risks associated with their actions and make informed, risk-aw…

Distillation and Interpretability of Ensemble Forecasts of ENSO Phase using Entropic Learning

Michael Groom, Davide Bassetti, Illia Horenko +1

This paper introduces a distillation framework for an ensemble of entropy-optimal Sparse Probabilistic Approximation (eSPA) models, trained exclusively on satellite-era observation…

Multi-Scale Wavelet Transformers for Operator Learning of Dynamical Systems

Xuesong Wang, Michael Groom, Rafael Oliveira +3

Recent years have seen a surge in data-driven surrogates for dynamical systems that can be orders of magnitude faster than numerical solvers. However, many machine learning-based m…
