Generative AI for Validating Physics Laws
We present generative artificial intelligence (AI) to empirically validate fundamental laws of physics, focusing on the Stefan-Boltzmann law linking stellar temperature and luminosity. Our approach simulates counterfactual luminosities under hypothetical temperature regimes for each individual star and iteratively refines the temperature-luminosity relationship in a deep learning architecture. We use Gaia DR3 data and find that, on average, temperature's effect on luminosity increases with stellar radius and decreases with absolute magnitude, consistent with theoretical predictions. By framing physics laws as causal problems, our method offers a novel, data-driven approach to refine theoretical understanding and inform evidence-based policy and practice.

A Bayesian-Symbolic Approach to Learning and Reasoning for Intuitive Physics
Humans are capable of reasoning about physical phenomena by inferring laws of physics from a very limited set of observations. The inferred laws can potentially depend on unobserved properties, such as mass, texture, cha…

Reconstructing continuous physical fields from sparse measurements is a central inverse problem, but data-driven generative models can produce states that violate governing dynamics. We introduce a physics-informed gener…
Deriving Compact Laws Based on Algebraic Formulation of a Data Set
In various subjects, there exist compact and consistent relationships between input and output parameters. Discovering the relationships, or namely compact laws, in a data set is of great interest in many fields, such as…
