SimulCost: A Cost-Aware Benchmark and Toolkit for Automating Physics Simulations with LLMs

Evaluating LLM agents for scientific tasks has focused on token costs while ignoring tool-use costs like simulation time and experimental resources. As a result, metrics like pass@k become impractical under realistic budget constraints. To address this gap, we introduce SimulCost, the first benchmark targeting cost-sensitive parameter tuning in physics simulations. SimulCost compares LLM tuning cost-sensitive parameters against traditional scanning approach in both accuracy and computational cost, spanning 2,643 single-round (initial guess) and 2,304 multi-round (adjustment by trial-and-error) tasks across 11 simulators from fluid dynamics, solid mechanics, and plasma physics, whose costs are analytically defined and platform-independent. A twelfth simulator, a production plasma code measurable only by wall clock, is reported separately. Frontier LLMs achieve 45-62% success rates in single-round mode, dropping to 34-50% under high accuracy requirements, rendering their initial guesses unreliable especially for high accuracy tasks. Multi-round mode improves rates to 66-81%, but LLMs are 1.5-2.7x slower than traditional scanning, making them uneconomical choices. We also investigate parameter group correlations for knowledge transfer potential, and the impact of in-context examples and reasoning effort, providing practical implications for deployment and fine-tuning. We open-source SimulCost as a static benchmark and extensible toolkit to facilitate research on improving cost-aware agentic designs for physics simulations, and for expanding new simulation environments.

LycheeMemory V2: Efficient Long-Term Memory for LLM Agents via Semantic Segment-Level Consolidation

Long-horizon LLM agents must preserve information from past interactions to support future tasks. Existing memory systems typically rely on eager consolidation, invoking LLMs after each interaction to extract, summarize, or update memories. This design makes memory construction increasingly costly as conversations grow. Coarse summarization can reduce construction cost but risks discarding fine-grained contextual evidence, whereas larger retrieval contexts or multi-hop LLM reasoning shift the overhead to query time. We present LycheeMemory V2, an efficient long-term memory framework that replaces turn-level consolidation with semantic segment-level consolidation. Instead of consolidating every interaction, LycheeMemory batches multiple exchanges into segments and encodes each finalized segment into context-independent typed memory records. Segment-level batching lowers LLM encoding frequency, while semantic boundary detection helps preserve coherent event-level and temporal evidence compared with fixed-window batching. The resulting records are organized with lightweight structured indexes for query-planned evidence retrieval. Experiments using GPT-4.1-Mini show that LycheeMemory achieves state-of-the-art performance, reaching 89.22% on LoCoMo and 92.20% on LongMemEval-S. Compared with A-Mem, it reduces construction tokens by 86.0% on LoCoMo and 75.9% on LongMemEval-S without increasing query-time token usage. More broadly, our results suggest that the accuracy--cost trade-off of long-term agent memory depends not only on what information is retained, but also on the granularity at which it is consolidated.

Recursive Flow Matching

Generative models have emerged as a powerful paradigm for solving physics systems and modeling complex spatiotemporal dynamics. However, achieving high physical accuracy without incurring high computational cost remains a fundamental challenge, as existing approaches face a critical speed-fidelity trade-off. In this work, we introduce Recursive Flow Matching (RecFM), a generative framework for forecasting complex spatiotemporal dynamics. RecFM enforces self-consistency to align trajectories across discretization scales, reducing discretization errors and improving performance across metrics for physics-based tasks. To our knowledge, this is the first method to achieve high-fidelity one- and few-step (2-4 step) dynamic generation for scientific systems with performance comparable to state-of-the-art multi-step solvers. Across challenging scientific benchmarks, RecFM achieves up to a 20$\times$ speedup over leading diffusion-based emulators while improving predictive accuracy. Furthermore, RecFM reduces mean squared error by over 15% compared to vanilla flow matching, offering a scalable and efficient solution for real-time scientific emulation.

Generative OOD-regularized Model-based Policy Optimization

We study sequential decision-making with offline reinforcement learning (RL). Traditional offline RL policies may result in out-of-distribution (OOD) actions when training relies only on sparse offline representations. To ensure safe offline policies in a sparse state-action space, we explore how density estimation models can be integrated into model-based RL methods to avoid the OOD regions. Generative models are capable of explicitly modeling the density in sparse state-action spaces. Building on this, we introduce Generative OOD-regularized Model-based Policy Optimization (GORMPO), a density-regularized offline RL algorithm that uses generative density modeling to restrict policy updates to high-density areas of the dataset. Furthermore, we examine whether better OOD detection corresponds to better model-based offline policies. We compare (1) the OOD detection capabilities of various density estimators and (2) their performance within the GORMPO framework on a real-world medical dataset and sparse offline RL datasets. We theoretically guarantee GORMPO's performance under mild assumptions. Empirically, GORMPO outperforms state-of-the-art baselines by 17% on a real-world medical dataset and enhances the base model on the offline RL datasets. Our empirical findings show that better OOD detection generally results in improved policies in environments with stable dynamics, while conservative penalties with poor density estimation are favored when dynamics are uncertain.

VideoPDE: Unified Generative PDE Solving via Video Inpainting Diffusion Models

We present a unified framework for solving partial differential equations (PDEs) using video-inpainting diffusion transformer models. Unlike existing methods that devise specialized strategies for either forward or inverse problems under full or partial observation, our approach unifies these tasks under a single, flexible generative framework. Specifically, we recast PDE-solving as a generalized inpainting problem, e.g., treating forward prediction as inferring missing spatiotemporal information of future states from initial conditions. To this end, we design a transformer-based architecture that conditions on arbitrary patterns of known data to infer missing values across time and space. Our method proposes pixel-space video diffusion models for fine-grained, high-fidelity inpainting and conditioning, while enhancing computational efficiency through hierarchical modeling. Extensive experiments show that our video inpainting-based diffusion model offers an accurate and versatile solution across a wide range of PDEs and problem setups, outperforming state-of-the-art baselines.

DiffusionPDE: Generative PDE-Solving Under Partial Observation

We introduce a general framework for solving partial differential equations (PDEs) using generative diffusion models. In particular, we focus on the scenarios where we do not have the full knowledge of the scene necessary to apply classical solvers. Most existing forward or inverse PDE approaches perform poorly when the observations on the data or the underlying coefficients are incomplete, which is a common assumption for real-world measurements. In this work, we propose DiffusionPDE that can simultaneously fill in the missing information and solve a PDE by modeling the joint distribution of the solution and coefficient spaces. We show that the learned generative priors lead to a versatile framework for accurately solving a wide range of PDEs under partial observation, significantly outperforming the state-of-the-art methods for both forward and inverse directions.

SpaceMeta: Global-Scale Massive Multi-User Virtual Interaction over LEO Satellite Constellations

Low latency and high synchronization among users are critical for emerging multi-user virtual interaction applications. However, the existing ground-based cloud solutions are naturally limited by the complex ground topology and fiber speeds, making it difficult to pace with the requirement of multi-user virtual interaction. The growth of low earth orbit (LEO) satellite constellations becomes a promising alternative to ground solutions. To fully exploit the potential of the LEO satellite, in this paper, we study the satellite server selection problem for global-scale multi-user interaction applications over LEO constellations. We propose an effective server selection framework, called SpaceMeta, that jointly selects the ingress satellite servers and relay servers on the communication path to minimize latency and latency discrepancy among users. Extensive experiments using real-world Starlink topology demonstrate that SpaceMeta reduces the latency by 6.72% and the interquartile range (IQR) of user latency by 39.50% compared with state-of-the-art methods.
