A Physics-Regulated Neural Framework for Learning 3D Grain Growth Dynamics

Zhihui Tian, Kang Yang, Michael Tonks, Amanda R. Krause, Joel B. Harley

Grain growth is governed by the reduction in grain boundary energy and exhibits well-established statistical scaling laws. Developing data-driven surrogates that preserve these physical invariants while remaining computationally scalable remains challenging, especially in 3D. We present 3D-PRIMME (Physics-Regulated Interpretable Machine Learning for Microstructure Evolution) for learning three-dimensional grain growth dynamics. The model is trained using only two consecutive time steps yet accurately reproduces the linear coarsening law and preserves topological statistics over extended time scales. Despite being trained on a $100^3$ grid points with 512 grains, the learned evolution operator is applied to domains up to $1024^3$ grid points with 550000 grains without retraining, maintaining consistent kinetics and grain topology across orders-of-magnitude increases in system size. These results demonstrate that 3D-PRIMME learns a scale-independent and temporally stable local evolution rule, enabling efficient and robust large-scale surrogate prediction of 3D microstructure evolution.

OnlineCache: Learning Dynamic Caching Policies with Error Correction for Efficient Diffusion Inference

Zhikang Xie, Xichen Ye, Yifan Wu, Haoshen Yu, Li chenan, Peizhu Gong, et al.

Diffusion models have revolutionized generative tasks but incur high latency due to iterative denoising. While cache-based strategies accelerate inference by reusing intermediate features, they largely rely on static, sample-agnostic schedules. We argue that this rigidity overloo…
