Bi-FORK: Generative Modeling of High-Dimensional Bifurcating Systems

Özetle: Bifurcations are ubiquitous in physical systems, from structural buckling to fluid and climate dynamics, yet they remain largely unexplored in deep learning.

Özet

Bifurcations are ubiquitous in physical systems, from structural buckling to fluid and climate dynamics, yet they remain largely unexplored in deep learning. At a symmetry-breaking bifurcation, a single input admits multiple equally valid solutions, violating the one-to-one assumption underlying most learned physical surrogates. We introduce Bi-FORK, a generative framework for learning these one-to-many solution maps in high-dimensional systems. Bi-FORK generates complete trajectories through latent flow matching, preserving space and time coherence, and uses repulsion-guided sampling to recover distinct solution branches in a single amortized pass. We evaluate Bi-FORK on buckling beams, mechanical metamaterials, and Allen-Cahn phase separation, spanning continuous, discrete, and field-valued bifurcations with discretizations up to 260,000 points. Bi-FORK recovers the multimodal solution structure while scaling several orders of magnitude beyond prior approaches, opening generative modeling to high-dimensional bifurcating physical systems.
