SUMMARY:FSML Lecture Series - Lianghao Cao (Caltech): Derivative-Informed Operator Learning with Applications to Cost-Efficient Bayesian Inversion
DESCRIPTION:Zoom link \nBio: Dr. Lianghao Cao is a Postdoctoral Scholar Research Associate from the Department of Computing and Mathematical Sciences at the California Institute of Technology. He obtained a B.S. in Engineering Mechanics from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and a Ph.D. in Computational Science\, Engineering\, and Mathematics from The University of Texas at Austin. His research blends mechanistic modeling\, uncertainty quantification\, and scientific machine learning to understand\, enhance\, and control the quality\, validity\, and reliability of simulation-based predictions of complex physical systems. \nDerivative-Informed Operator Learning with Applications to Cost-Efficient Bayesian Inversion\nAbstract: This talk focuses on a derivative-informed supervised learning method for efficiently building machine learning surrogates of high-fidelity computational models\, particularly those governed by parametric partial differential equations. Unlike the conventional supervised learning method that treats the model as a black box\, our approach leverages additional model sensitivity information\, extracted via solving forward or adjoint sensitivity equations. This sensitivity information is integrated into the surrogate’s architecture and training process based on rigorous error analysis. We refer to such a surrogate construction as DINO (derivative-informed neural operator). \nDINO offers two key advantages over conventional surrogate construction. First\, it significantly improves the cost-accuracy trade-off for a wide range of models\, often by one to two orders of magnitude. Second\, it directly controls the surrogate Jacobian (Fréchet derivative) errors\, thus enhancing performance in surrogate-driven outer-loop problems that use gradient- and Hessian-based optimization algorithms. We demonstrate DINO’s capability to accelerate infinite-dimensional Bayesian inversion. First\, we show that geometric MCMC driven by DINO achieves a 2–9x speed up in asymptotically exact posterior sampling. Second\, we introduce LazyDINO\, a DINO-driven measure transport method for amortized Bayesian inversion\, which is one to two orders of magnitude more cost-efficient than competing methods.\nThis talk is based on joint work with Michael Brennan\, Joshua Chen\, Omar Ghattas\, Youssef Marzouk\, and Thomas O’Leary-Roseberry.

SUMMARY:FSML Lecture Series - Alexander Tong (Mila - Quebec AI Institute): Flow matching in cell trajectories and protein design
DESCRIPTION:Zoom link \nBio: Alexander Tong is a postdoctoral fellow at Mila with Yoshua Bengio\, visiting researcher at Oxford with Michael Bronstein\, cofounder of Dreamfold—a protein design startup\, and incoming assistant professor at Duke University starting July 2025. Alex completed his Ph.D. in Computer Science at Yale University in 2021 with Smita Krishnaswamy. His research interests span generative modeling\, graph signal processing\, and optimal transport to understand biological systems with a focus on cells and proteins. \nFlow matching in cell trajectories and protein design\nAbstract: Generative flow models learn a (possibly stochastic) mapping between source and target distributions. Common paradigms include diffusion models\, score matching models\, and continuous normalizing flows. In this talk I will first present methods for improved training of flow models using flow matching objectives using ideas from optimal transport. I will then show how these improved methods can be applied to the tasks of (1) modelling cell dynamics\, which allow us to better understand disease programs –leading to a new potential therapeutic pathway for triple-negative breast cancer and (2) generative protein design\, with applications to biologic drug discovery.

SUMMARY:FSML Lecture Series - Doruk Aksoy: From Turbulent Flows to Video Games: Managing Large-Scale Data with Tensor Decomposition
DESCRIPTION:Zoom link \nBio:Doruk Aksoy is a 5th year PhD candidate in Aerospace Engineering and Scientific computing at the University of Michigan\, working under the supervision of Prof. Alex Gorodetsky. Prior to joining UM\, he studied Mechanical Engineering at Bogazici University in Istanbul Turkey. During his PhD\, he worked on developing incremental tensor decomposition algorithms to accelerate scientific machine learning through data reduction. \nFrom Turbulent Flows to Video Games: Managing Large-Scale Data with Tensor Decomposition\nAbstract: The rapid advancement of large-scale parallel computing created a surge of interest in developing high-fidelity digital twins for complex systems. However\, the computational demands for training these models are immense\, requiring vast amounts of data. As the spatial and temporal resolution of simulations increases\, even data storage becomes a critical bottleneck. This talk presents how low-rank tensor decomposition methods can be used to exploit the structure in large-scale data. We showcase a diverse array of applications\, from 3D turbulent Navier-Stokes simulations to Minecraft gameplay videos\, demonstrating the versatility and power of these techniques.

SUMMARY:FSML Lecture Series - Ricardo Vinuesa: Identifying coherent structures and controlling turbulent flows through deep learning
DESCRIPTION:Zoom link \nBio: Dr. Ricardo Vinuesa is joining the Department of Aerospace Engineering at the University of Michigan in the Fall of 2025. He is currently an Associate Professor at the Department of Engineering Mechanics\, KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm. He studied Mechanical Engineering at the Polytechnic University of Valencia (Spain)\, and he received his PhD in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering from the Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago. His research combines numerical simulations and data-driven methods to understand\, control and predict complex wall-bounded turbulent flows\, such as the boundary layers developing around wings and urban environments. Dr. Vinuesa has received\, among others\, an ERC Consolidator Grant\, the TSFP Kasagi Award\, the MST Emerging Leaders Award\, the Goran Gustafsson Award for Young Researchers\, the IIT Outstanding Young Alumnus Award\, the SARES Young Researcher Award and he leads several large Horizon Europe projects. He is also a member of the Young Academy of Science of Spain. \nIdentifying coherent structures and controlling turbulent flows through deep learning\nAbstract: In this work we first use explainable deep learning based on Shapley explanations to identify the most important regions for predicting the future states of a turbulent channel flow. The explainability framework (based on gradient SHAP) is applied to each grid point in the domain\, and through percolation analysis we identify coherent flow regions of high importance. These regions have around 70% overlap with the intense Reynolds-stress (Q) events in two-dimensional vertical planes. Interestingly\, these importance-based structures have high overlap with classical turbulence structures (Q events\, streaks and vortex clusters) in different wall-normal locations\, suggesting that this new framework provides a more comprehensive way to study turbulence. We also discuss the application of deep reinforcement learning (DRL) to discover active-flow-control strategies for turbulent flows\, including turbulent channels\, three-dimensional cylinders and turbulent separation bubbles. In all the cases\, the discovered DRL-based strategies significantly outperform classical flow-control approaches. We conclude that DRL has tremendous potential for drag reduction in a wide range of complex turbulent-flow configurations. \n

SUMMARY:FSML Lecture Series - Panos Stinis: When big neural networks are not enough: physics\, multi-fidelity and kernels
DESCRIPTION:Zoom link \nBio: Panos Stinis specializes in scientific computing with application interests in model reduction of complex systems\, multiscale modeling\, uncertainty quantification\, and machine learning. He studied aeronautical engineering at the Technical University of Athens\, Greece. He earned his PhD in applied mathematics in 2003\, from Columbia University in New York and began his career as a postdoctoral fellow at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and the Stanford Center for Turbulence Research. In 2008\, he became a faculty member at the Mathematics Department at the University of Minnesota. He moved to the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory in 2014\, where he is currently leading the Computational Mathematics group. \nWhen big neural networks are not enough: physics\, multi-fidelity and kernels\nAbstract: Modern machine learning has shown remarkable promise in multiple applications. However\, brute force use of neural networks\, even when they have huge numbers of trainable parameters\, can fail to provide highly accurate predictions for problems in the physical sciences. We present a collection of ideas about how enforcing physics\, exploiting multi-fidelity knowledge\, and the kernel representation of neural networks can lead to a significant increase in efficiency and/or accuracy. Various examples are used to illustrate the ideas. \n

SUMMARY:FSML Lecture Series - Anoushka Bhutani: Foundation Model for Molecular Design
DESCRIPTION:Zoom link \nBio: Anoushka is a third-year PhD student in Prof. Venkat Viswanathan’s group at the University of Michigan. Her research interests include machine learning for materials design and electrochemical battery modeling. \nFoundation Model for Molecular Design\nAbstract: The paradigm of molecular machine learning for material screening has accelerated material development cycles\, improved efficiency\, and reduced costs. However\, current state-of-the-art molecular property prediction models still require labeled training data generated using wet-lab experiments or Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations. Their utility is limited by the scarcity and heterogeneity of labeled materials datasets. Foundation models (FMs) offer a solution to this: these models use self-supervised pre-training strategies to leverage unlabeled datasets and learn representations of data that can be applied to downstream tasks. Large unlabeled datasets of billions of synthesizable molecules are readily available. Prior attempts to train FMs for molecular property prediction demonstrate promise; however\, equivariant geometric models trained using supervised learning are still more accurate. This can be attributed to the fact that foundation models are extremely expensive to train and can be difficult to interpret; they require huge computing budgets\, complex distributed computing techniques\, and extensive hyperparameter searches. Our work addresses these challenges on three fronts: (1) we have prototyped a scalable workflow for distributed training of molecular foundation models (2) we have trained large foundation models using this workflow which demonstrates state-of-the-art molecular property prediction capabilities across several benchmarks\, and (3) we have applied model interpretability strategies such as the attention visualization to shed insight on molecular structure relationships learn by the transformer. \n

SUMMARY:FSML Lecture Series - Hongfan Chen: Global Geomagnetic Perturbation Forecasting with Quantified Uncertainty using Deep Gaussian Process
DESCRIPTION:Zoom link \nBio: Hongfan Chen is a third-year PhD student in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Michigan. His research interests include data assimilation\, uncertainty quantification\, and machine learning applications in space weather. \nGlobal Geomagnetic Perturbation Forecasting with Quantified Uncertainty Using Deep Gaussian Process\nAbstract: Accurately predicting the horizontal component of the ground magnetic field perturbation (dBH)\, as a proxy for Geomagnetically Induced Currents (GICs)\, is crucial for estimating the impact of geomagnetic storms and remains a topic under active investigation. The current state-of-the-practice Geospace model is computationally expensive for fine-grid global simulations while existing machine learning methods consistently tend to underestimate dBH. Additionally\, these models either lack uncertainty quantification (UQ) or provide UQ that lacks calibration. In this work\, as part of the NextGen SWMF project funded by NSF\, we develop a data-driven\, grid-free global model using deep Gaussian process (DGP)\, a Bayesian non-parametric approach that forecasts the dBH for the full surface of Earth with calibrated uncertainty. The model uses solar wind measurements and the Dst index as input\, and it is trained based on ground magnetometer station data provided by SuperMAG over the period 1995-2022. The model’s predictions are evaluated based on the Heidke skill score (HSS) for a total of 22 geomagnetic storms in 2015. We further test the model on the 2024 May 10-12 storm. The results demonstrate that our model outperforms the state-of-the-art model\, with predictions exhibiting high accuracy in mid-latitudes and high-latitude regions in the northern hemisphere. \n

SUMMARY:FSML Lecture Series - Nicholas Galioto: Discovery of Cellular Reprogramming Methodology Through Single-cell Foundation Models
DESCRIPTION:Zoom link \nBio: Nick Galioto is a second-year postdoctoral research fellow in the Department of Computational Medicine and Bioinformatics at the University of Michigan (UM). He received his PhD at UM in aerospace engineering in 2023 under the advising of Alex Gorodetsky and remained in the lab for an additional year as a postdoc. In the Gorodetsky lab\, Nick researched how to use stochastic models of dynamical systems to improve system identification. Now\, Nick works in the Rajapakse lab researching how to create data-driven models of the dynamics of cell reprogramming. \n  \nDiscovery of Cellular Reprogramming Methodology Through Single-cell Foundation Models\n  \nAbstract: Cell reprogramming\, the transformation of a cell from one cell type to another through the introduction of exogenous transcription factors (TFs)\, is a rapidly developing research area that could lead to groundbreaking therapeutic technologies in areas such as tissue regeneration\, disease modeling\, and personalized medicine. However\, many challenges still exist that obstruct its practical viability. Discovering which TFs induce reprogramming requires a combinatorial search\, and testing a single candidate set of TFs experimentally can cost tens of thousands of dollars and take multiple months. Moreover\, even when an effective set of TFs is known\, cell conversion efficiency lies only around 5%. Faced with these challenges\, researchers have developed computational surrogate models to rapidly explore the TF search space at a fraction of the cost of wet lab experimentation. Unfortunately\, these models have seen limited success in practice due to the difficulty of capturing the complex gene-gene interactions within the cell\, most of which are still not well understood. With the recent high-profile rise of transformer-based foundation models for natural language\, researchers are now turning to the transformer to push past\, current performance limitations in a wide range of digital biology tasks\, including cell reprogramming. Of particular interest in these models is the attention mechanism\, which is potentially well-suited for capturing long-range gene-gene interactions at a higher fidelity than previously possible. In this talk\, I will describe how the transformer architecture has been adapted for cellular biology and analyze the utility of one such model\, Geneformer\, in identifying TFs for cell reprogramming. Specifically\, I will present the results of an in silico perturbation experiment for reprogramming fibroblast cells to hematopoietic stem cells and compare the outcomes to experimental results found in the literature. I will conclude the talk with a discussion of the drawbacks and limitations of the Geneformer model and provide an assessment of what will be needed in the future for digital biology to fully reap the benefits of large-scale foundation models.

SUMMARY:FSML Lecture Series: Domain decomposition and coupling data-driven models of fluid flows by Christopher Wentland\, Sandia National Labs
DESCRIPTION:Zoom link \n \nAbstract: Simulating complex physical systems often requires joining non-uniform subsystems\, which may be characterized by different geometries or mesh topologies. Coupling these separate subsystems often relies on time-intensive meshing workflows or empirical coupling models\, which may not generalize well across all operational regimes. The Schwarz alternating method proposes to overcome these issues\, establishing an effective domain decomposition framework that allows for the coupling of arbitrary geometries. This talk presents a brief history of Schwarz-based coupling work at Sandia National Laboratories\, along with recent work on combining the Schwarz alternating method with data-driven modeling approaches\, namely projection-based reduced order models (PROMs) and operator inference. This approach can generate surrogates that are capable of simulating advection-dominated fluid flows with higher accuracy and lower cost than comparable monolithic models\, aiding analysis in many-query applications such as uncertainty quantification and engineering design. Several nuances of the Schwarz algorithm and their impacts on model performance are explored\, specifically non-overlapping decompositions and PROM hyper-reduction under domain decomposition. A look into ongoing Schwarz coupling work at Sandia discusses existing challenges and efforts to apply this approach to relevant engineering problems.

SUMMARY:MICDE/ME Seminar: Krishnan Mahesh\, Professor\, University of Michigan NAME
DESCRIPTION:Bio:  Krishnan Mahesh is a Richard B. Couch Professor of Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering at the University of Michigan. His research focuses on the simulation of complex\, multi-physics turbulent flows. Mahesh received his Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology (Mumbai)\, and in 1996 obtained his Ph.D. degree in Mechanical Engineering from Stanford University. He is a 2018 Fulbright-Nehru Specialist\, a Fellow of the American Physical Society\, an Associate Fellow of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics\, and a Fellow of the Minnesota Supercomputing Institute. Mahesh is a recipient of the CAREER Award from the National Science Foundation and the Francois N. Frenkiel Award from the American Physical Society. He has received the Taylor Award for Distinguished Research\, McKnight Presidential Fellowship\, Guillermo E. Borja Award\, and McKnight Land-Grant Professorship from the University of Minnesota. \nLarge Eddy Simulation of Turbulent Cavitating Flows\nCavitation is a complex multi-scale phenomenon that has implications from intense sound production to erosion in engineering applications. This talk will discuss our efforts at developing the large-eddy simulation capability for the simulation of turbulent cavitating flows. LES of cavitation is challenged by phase change modeling\, acoustic stiffness\, sharp multiphase fronts\, strong compressibility effects\, consistent accounting of nuclei\, broadband turbulence and subgrid effects. \nLES of partial cavitation will be discussed under the same conditions as experiments in a sharp wedge configuration.  Physical mechanisms of cavity transition observed in the experiments\, i.e.\, re-entrant jet and bubbly shock waves\, are both captured in the LES over their respective regimes. Vapor volume fraction data obtained from the LES will be quantitatively compared to X-ray densitometry\, and the results will be discussed. Cavitation nuclei are likely to be introduced through the free-stream as well as at solid surfaces. We will present a novel approach based on Gibbs free energy minimization to predict nuclei concentrations. The results from the proposed work will be applied to account for dissolved gas content in CSM measurements and predict several decades of experimentally observed trends in nuclei concentrations. Cavitating flows possess a range of vapor length scales ranging from tiny vapor bubbles to large vapor pockets. We will discuss a compressible hybrid model to capture both sub-grid vapor nuclei and massive sheet cavity dynamics. Finally\, physical aspects of inception due to the interaction of a counter–rotating vortex pair generated behind a pair of hydrofoils will be presented. \n\n  \nThe MICDE Fall 2025 Seminar Series is open to all. University of Michigan faculty and students. \nThis is an in-person event. \nGraduate Certificate in Computational Discovery and Engineering\, please use this form to record your attendance. \nQuestions?

SUMMARY:MICDE Ph.D. Student Seminars: Bernardo Pacini & Srinivasan Arunachalam
DESCRIPTION:The MICDE PhD Student Seminar Series showcases the research of students in the Ph.D. in Scientific Computing. These events are open to the public\, but we ask that you register to attend the seminar. If you have any questions\, please email micde-events@umich.edu. \nRegister to attend this seminar \nGradient-Based Multidisciplinary Design Optimization for Propeller Design\nUrban air mobility (UAM) vehicles have taken form as advanced rotorcraft with sets of wings\, rotors\, canards\, and other appendages. Noise generation is an important technical barrier that must be addressed to prevent these vehicles from causing excessive disturbance to the communities they are intended to service. To understand the noise these vehicles generate\, and to develop designs that can minimize disturbance\, there is a need for analysis and optimization tools specifically for the conceptual design and sizing phase of urban air mobility vehicle development. Such tools must be computationally efficient to allow for the repeated analyses needed for design optimization. This presentation will review the work being carried out at the University of Michigan\, coupling aerodynamic\, structural\, and aeroacoustic disciplines within the multidisciplinary gradient-based design optimization framework OpenMDAO. While aerostructural optimization has been performed previously\, coupling with aeroacoustics is challenging given the requirement for time accurate simulations and the associated computational cost of such analyses. By leveraging multiple model fidelities and utilizing efficient gradient calculation techniques\, such as the adjoint method and algorithmic differentiation\, these disciplines can be formulated into an optimization framework that can be applied to UAM vehicle designs. This presentation will review the work completed to date\, including preliminary results\, and expand on the future goals of the project\, working towards a broader optimization framework for rotorcraft vehicle design optimization. \nBernardo Pacini\, Ph.D. candidate in Mechanical Engineering and Scientific Computing \nBernardo Pacini is a Ph.D. Candidate at the University of Michigan focusing his research on aerodynamic\, structural\, and aeroacoustic modeling for multidisciplinary design optimization of urban air mobility vehicles. He is a member of the Multidisciplinary Design Optimization Laboratory led by Professor Joaquim R. R. A. Martins and of the Computational Aerosciences Laboratory led by Professor Karthik Duraisamy. Bernardo’s work to date is on developing an aero-structural-acoustic analysis framework that can be implemented within the multidisciplinary design optimization process for rotorcraft and urban air mobility vehicle design. \nRegister to attend this seminar \nValidation of a multivariate non-Gaussian\, non-stationary wind pressure simulation model for performance-based wind engineering\nWith a growing interest in probabilistic performance assessments of building systems subjected to wind loads\, there is a demand for accurately representing building-specific wind loads\, considering their non-Gaussian and non-stationary features. While typical wind tunnel data collected for a set of discrete wind directions provide a single realization of stationary pressures\, there is currently no experimentally validated model for the stochastic simulation of non-Gaussian and non-stationary wind pressures that can be calibrated to wind tunnel datasets. Such a model is essential for simulating building aerodynamics\, especially the stochastic\, path-dependent responses associated with time-varying wind speed and direction experienced by a building during hurricane wind events. This talk will review a recently developed theoretical formulation for generating these stochastic pressures. Through carefully designed tests conducted at the University of Florida wind tunnel facility\, the formulation was extensively validated with respect to its ability to capture trends over time\, occurrences of peaks\, and time-varying frequency content. \nSrinivasan Arunachalam\, Ph.D. candidate in Civil and Environmental Engineering and Scientific Computing \nSrinivasan Arunachalam is a PhD candidate in Civil and Environmental Engineering. His research interests lie in uncertainty quantification and understanding the inelastic behavior of wind-excited structures. He is excited about the algorithmic developments that enable efficient reliability assessments\, as well as the evolving insights into the physics of extreme responses and their implications for structural design. \nRegister to attend this seminar
