New preprint! So, say you're studying some critical transition. How do you catch its universality? Pair correlations? Boring! We threw line segments at the system, looked at intersections with clusters, and uncovered static and dynamical universal behavior of MIPS! arxiv.org/abs/2511.09444

New paper just out, as an editor's suggestion in PRL! While looking for the ideal isotropic bandgap material, we actually discovered new structures. These structures lie at the border between order and disorder, and that's good for optics! More about their structure here, tinyurl.com/3aej53ht ⚛️🧪

The transformative capability of quantum-accurate machine learning interatomic potentials Kim Review Commentary by Alfredo A. Correa; Sebastien Hamel kimreview.org/commentaries...

If everyone does it, it must be right…right? Not quite. In “All That Structure Matches Does Not Glitter” #NeurIPS2025 we show CSP benchmarks miss polymorphs and datasets are duplicated. New deduped data, polymorph-aware splits, METRe & cRMSE. Harder tasks, better models! www.arxiv.org/abs/2509.12178

Check out our latest paper in collaboration with Mathias Casiulis, Naomi Oppenheimer, and Matan Ben Zion on a simple geometric design rule to achieve robotic swarm intelligence. The paper is out today in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS). www.nyu.edu/about/news-p...

Contrastive Self-Supervised Learning is Just Sphere Packing! CLAMP (Contrastive Learning As Manifold Packing) recasts SSL as neural manifold packing with a physics-inspired repulsive-particle loss (like in jamming) and achieves new SOTA on ImageNet-100. arxiv.org/abs/2506.13717

We show that memory persistence is encoded in gene expression manifolds, not single gene changes. Shadow memory proteins like PKMzeta & KIBRA leave no single-gene signature, but reshape network structure. New from our lab + Hofmann + Fenton lab: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

🚀 Satyam and Guanming’s “Emergent Universal Long Range Structure in Random-Organizing Systems” shows noise correlations create long-range structure, from 🧩 hyperuniform materials to 🤖 ML, and that SGD’s flat minima bias is universal. 👇 arxiv.org/abs/2505.22933 #SoftMatter #ML

🚀 New paper on stabilizing recurrent neural circuits! Normalization keeps recurrent networks in check. When it fails: ⏳ critical slowing, 🎲 variability ➡️ 🌪️ oscillations➡️💥 instability. Important for understanding brain functions and building AI. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

🚀 Thrilled to introduce Open Materials Generation (OMatG), a state of the art framework for generative design of inorganic crystalline materials! Accepted at #ICML2025 & Spotlight at #AI4Mat @ICLR2025! 🔬 OMatG unifies flow matching & score-based diffusion, outperforming FlowMM and FlowLLM!

On Tuesday, March 25, Stefano Martiniani will give an #AI for Science Seminar on “Learning as Manifold Packing” in room 414 AGH, hosted by the Data Driven Discovery Initiative (DDDI) and the Center for Innovation in Data Engineering and Science (IDEAS). Join us! web.sas.upenn.edu/da...

From 2010 to 2016 (latest data I have ), NIH research contributed to EVERY drug approved by the FDA

Do systems where the equations are known but cannot be solved in less than exponential time count? If so just take Schroedinger's equation for an interacting many-body system. Perfect description of the problem with no solution :)

The application window for the Summer Undergraduate Research Program in Computational Physical Chemistry at NYU is now open. This is a a 10-week summer program with a stipend of $10,000. Open to all U.S. students who are not already at NYU. Details at wp.nyu.edu/sccpc/summer...

Thank you NSF! With this award we'll attempt to answer the question of how many stable materials could possibly exist. More generally, we'll quantify the number of possible outputs of a generative model in ML, and its link to the regularity of the output as.nyu.edu/departments/...

Congrats to @satyamanand.bsky.social for "Transport and energetics of bacterial rectification" now out in @pnas.org! We develop a description of bacterial rectification based on single-bacterium dynamics that illustrates the generic principles governing the energetics of this nonequilibrium process.

Join us for the #AI4Mat workshop at #NeurIPS2024 today and check out our spotlight on how we built the most diverse database for AI for materials in the world openreview.net/forum?id=b8q...

@shivangrawat.bsky.social presenting his poster on dynamic normalization at #NeurIPS2024 shivangrawat.github.io/dynamic-divi...

If you are at NeurIPS come check our poster! We show how dynamic normalization induces unconditional stability in RNNs, enhancing trainability and improving interpretability. We outperform neurodynamical models and match LSTMs without gradient clipping/scaling! shivangrawat.github.io/dynamic-divi...
