Learning symplectic model reduction based on a approximation theorem of symplectic embeddings

Liyi Feng, Yifa Tang, Yulin Xie et al.

High-dimensional Hamiltonian systems play a central role in many scientific and engineering disciplines, with dynamics evolving on symplectic manifolds. Although deep learning provides powerful tools for constructing low-dimensional surrogates from data, the intrinsic symplectic structure is easily destroyed during model reduction. As a result, a standard autoencoder may produce latent coordinates that do not support a Hamiltonian flow, leading to unstable long-time prediction. In this paper, we first establish a universal approximation theorem for symplectic embeddings. Based on this theory, we propose symplecticity-preserving autoencoders (SpAE), in which the decoder is parameterized as a symplectic embedding and the encoder is constructed as the corresponding symplectic projection. This architecture is expressive enough to approximate nonlinear symplectic embeddings and the associated symplectic projections, preserves the symplectic structure exactly by construction, and can be trained by standard unconstrained optimization, thereby improving both reconstruction and prediction accuracy. Extensive experiments on high-dimensional lattice and particle systems demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Spiking Neural Networks with Temporal Attention-Guided Adaptive Fusion for imbalanced Multi-modal Learning

Jiangrong Shen, Yulin Xie, Qi Xu et al.

Multimodal spiking neural networks (SNNs) hold significant potential for energy-efficient sensory processing but face critical challenges in modality imbalance and temporal misalignment. Current approaches suffer from uncoordinated convergence speeds across modalities and static fusion mechanisms that ignore time-varying cross-modal interactions. We propose the temporal attention-guided adaptive fusion framework for multimodal SNNs with two synergistic innovations: 1) The Temporal Attention-guided Adaptive Fusion (TAAF) module that dynamically assigns importance scores to fused spiking features at each timestep, enabling hierarchical integration of temporally heterogeneous spike-based features; 2) The temporal adaptive balanced fusion loss that modulates learning rates per modality based on the above attention scores, preventing dominant modalities from monopolizing optimization. The proposed framework implements adaptive fusion, especially in the temporal dimension, and alleviates the modality imbalance during multimodal learning, mimicking cortical multisensory integration principles. Evaluations on CREMA-D, AVE, and EAD datasets demonstrate state-of-the-art performance (77.55\%, 70.65\% and 97.5\%accuracy, respectively) with energy efficiency. The system resolves temporal misalignment through learnable time-warping operations and faster modality convergence coordination than baseline SNNs. This work establishes a new paradigm for temporally coherent multimodal learning in neuromorphic systems, bridging the gap between biological sensory processing and efficient machine intelligence.
