• Title: Modeling Randomly Observed Spatiotemporal Dynamical Systems
• Authors: Valerii Iakovlev, Harri Lähdesmäki,
• Abstract summary: Currently available neural network-based modeling approaches fall short when faced with data collected randomly over time and space. In response, we developed a new method that effectively handles such randomly sampled data. Our model integrates techniques from amortized variational inference, neural differential equations, neural point processes, and implicit neural representations to predict both the dynamics of the system and the timings and locations of future observations.

• Abstract: Spatiotemporal processes are a fundamental tool for modeling dynamics across various domains, from heat propagation in materials to oceanic and atmospheric flows. However, currently available neural network-based modeling approaches fall short when faced with data collected randomly over time and space, as is often the case with sensor networks in real-world applications like crowdsourced earthquake detection or pollution monitoring. In response, we developed a new spatiotemporal method that effectively handles such randomly sampled data. Our model integrates techniques from amortized variational inference, neural differential equations, neural point processes, and implicit neural representations to predict both the dynamics of the system and the probabilistic locations and timings of future observations. It outperforms existing methods on challenging spatiotemporal datasets by offering substantial improvements in predictive accuracy and computational efficiency, making it a useful tool for modeling and understanding complex dynamical systems observed under realistic, unconstrained conditions.

  We propose Equivariant Graph Neural Operator (EGNO) to directly models dynamics as trajectories instead of just next-step prediction. EGNO explicitly learns the temporal evolution of 3D dynamics where we formulate the dynamics as a function over time and learn neural operators to approximate it. Comprehensive experiments in multiple domains, including particle simulations, human motion capture, and molecular dynamics, demonstrate the significantly superior performance of EGNO against existing methods.
