Notice: This website is continuously updated as new conference proceedings and journal volumes are published. Consequently, the figures presented here may differ from those reported in our publications.


A brief overview of our methodology is provided on the Methods page, along with references to publications documenting our approach and links to the code and data used in each study.


The reproducibility variables underlying each score are classified using an automated LLM-based pipeline, validated against a manually labeled dataset. LLM-based classification introduces uncertainty and potential bias; scores should be interpreted as estimates.

Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Experimental An illustration of the importance of the infinite-dimensional perspective is provided in Figure 1, which demonstrates that respecting the function space geometry can result in orders of magnitude improvement. Training curves for a PINN for a 2-dimensional Poisson equation; the first order optimizers (Adam and Gradient Descent) plateau, the second-order optimizers (ENGD and Newton) perform much better, but the function-space inspired optimizer (ENGD) reaches the highest accuracy by several orders of magnitude.
