This rapid communication devises a Neural Induction Machine (NeuIM) model, which pilots the use of physics-informed machine learning to enable AI-based electromagnetic transient simulations. The contributions are threefold: (1) a formation of NeuIM to represent the induction machine in phase domain; (2) a physics-informed neural network capable of capturing fast and slow IM dynamics even in the absence of data; and (3) a data-physics-integrated hybrid NeuIM approach which is adaptive to various levels of data availability. Extensive case studies validate the efficacy of NeuIM and in particular, its advantage over purely data-driven approaches.

The transition toward localized intelligence through Small Language Models (SLMs) has intensified the need for rigorous performance characterization on resource-constrained edge hardware. However, objectively measuring the theoretical performance ceilings of diverse architectures across heterogeneous platforms remains a formidable challenge. In this work, we propose a systematic framework based on the Roofline model that unifies architectural primitives and hardware constraints through the lens of operational intensity (OI). By defining an inference-potential region, we introduce the Relative Inference Potential as a novel metric to compare efficiency differences between Large Language Models (LLMs) on the same hardware substrate. Extensive empirical analysis across diverse compute tiers reveals that variations in performance and OI are significantly influenced by sequence length. We further identify a critical regression in OI as model depth increases. Additionally, our findings highlight an efficiency trap induced by hardware heterogeneity and demonstrate how structural refinements, such as Multi-head Latent Attention (M LA), can effectively unlock latent inference potential across various hardware substrates. These insights provide actionable directions for hardware-software co-design to align neural structures with physical constraints in on-device intelligence. The released code is available in the Appendix C.

Recent advances in large language models (LLMs) highlight the importance of training data structure and quality in shaping reasoning behavior. However, most existing approaches focus on transforming data formats while neglecting the internal reasoning complexity of training samples, leaving the reasoning potential of data under-explored and underutilized. In this work, we posit that LLM logical reasoning performance is jointly constrained by the potential of the training data and the cognitive capacity of the model. To make this relationship measurable, we introduce Data Reasoning Intensity (DRI), a novel metric that quantifies the latent logical reasoning complexity of samples by decomposing and aggregating their logical structures. This allows us to analyze how well current LLMs utilize logical reasoning signals and identify performance gaps relative to data potential. Based on this insight, we introduce a re-cognizing optimization strategy that systematically enhances the logical reasoning intensity of training data. Rather than increasing data volume, our method re-optimizes existing samples to better align with the LLM's logical reasoning boundary. Extensive experiments show that our approach significantly improves performance and generalization over data-centric strategies. We further validate our method under a reinforcement learning framework. Our results indicate that prioritizing reasoning complexity in data rather than sheer scale or superficial form is essential to realizing LLMs' full cognitive potential.

Recent progress in material data mining has been driven by high-capacity models trained on large datasets. However, collecting experimental data (real data) has been extremely costly since the amount of human effort and expertise required. Here, we develop a novel transfer learning strategy to address small or insufficient data problem. This strategy realizes the fusion of real and simulated data, and the augmentation of training data in data mining procedure. For a specific task of image segmentation, this strategy can generate synthetic images by fusing physical mechanism of simulated images and "image style" of real images. The result shows that the model trained with the acquired synthetic images and 35% of the real images outperforms the model trained on all real images. As the time required to generate synthetic data is almost negligible, this strategy is able to reduce the time cost of real data preparation by roughly 65%.
