Constructing controllable visual data is a major bottleneck for image editing and multimodal understanding. Useful supervision is rarely produced by a single rendering pass; instead it emerges through iterative generation, inspection, correction, filtering, and export. We present DataEvolver, a closed-loop visual data engine that organizes this process around explicit goals, persistent artifacts, bounded corrective actions, and acceptance decisions. DataEvolver supports multiple artifact types, including RGB images, masks, depth maps, normal maps, meshes, poses, trajectories, and review traces. In the current release, the system operates through two coupled loops: generation-time self-correction within each sample and validation-time self-expansion across dataset rounds. We validate the framework on an image-level object-rotation setting. With a fixed Qwen-Edit LoRA probe, our final Ours+DualGate model outperforms both the unadapted base model and a public multi-angle LoRA on SpatialEdit and a held-out evaluation set. Ablations show a consistent improvement path from scene-aware generation to feedback-driven correction and dual-gated validation. Beyond the released rotation data, our main contribution is a reusable framework for building visual datasets through explicit goal tracking, review, correction, and acceptance loops.

A physics-informed neural network (PINN) models the dynamics of a system by integrating the governing physical laws into the architecture of a neural network. By enforcing physical laws as constraints, PINN overcomes challenges with data scarsity and potentially high dimensionality. Existing PINN frameworks rely on fully observed time-course data, the acquisition of which could be prohibitive for many systems. In this study, we developed a new PINN learning paradigm, namely Constrained Learning, that enables the approximation of first-order derivatives or motions using non-time course or partially observed data. Computational principles and a general mathematical formulation of Constrained Learning were developed. We further introduced MPOCtrL (Message Passing Optimization-based Constrained Learning) an optimization approach tailored for the Constrained Learning framework that strives to balance the fitting of physical models and observed data. Its code is available at github link: https://github.com/ptdang1001/MPOCtrL Experiments on synthetic and real-world data demonstrated that MPOCtrL can effectively detect the nonlinear dependency between observed data and the underlying physical properties of the system. In particular, on the task of metabolic flux analysis, MPOCtrL outperforms all existing data-driven flux estimators.
