APIC: Orthogonalized Neuro-Symbolic Modeling for Nonlinear Dissipative Dynamics
Abstract
Current data-driven scientific modeling struggles with a functional dichotomy: neural operators exhibit spectral bias in high-frequency regimes, while physics-constrained paradigms suffer from optimization pathologies. To bridge this gap, we propose Adaptive Physics-Informed Computing (APIC), a neuro-symbolic meta-architecture designed with structural reconfigurability to encode diverse domain priors. Crucially, APIC integrates a gradient-isolated interaction strategy that mechanistically decouples the optimization paths of parameter identification and residual correction, effectively mitigating gradient interference/conflicts. By instantiating this framework for nonlinear dissipative systems, we derive the Generalized Kuramoto-Sivashinsky-Cahn-Hilliard (G-KSCH) kernel, providing a unified representation for sparse dynamic identification. Extensive experiments demonstrate that APIC establishes new benchmarks in 3D compressible supersonic shock wave prediction, surpassing diverse architectures (e.g., CNNs and Transformers) by 20% to 70% in predictive accuracy. Notably, APIC achieves Pareto-optimal performance, delivering superior precision with reduced computational overhead compared to SOTA models, while exhibiting robust cross-domain generalization across meteorological and urban traffic datasets.
