The compiled record

The paper's own sentences, arranged. Each label is drawn from a closed vocabulary; the number beside it is the probability the classifier gave that label. Numbers in the tables are the authors', checked by code. No sentence in this record was written by a model.

arXiv listing abstract v1. Results and the main claim are underlined; .

Methodologies for combining the accuracy of data-driven models with extrapolability of physics-based models are described and tested, for the task of building transport models of tokamak fusion reactors that extrapolate well to new operational regimes. Information from multiple physics simulations (the ASTRA transport code with gyro-Bohm and TGLF estimates for turbulent diffusion) as well as multiple distinct experiments (DIII-D and AUG tokamaks) are considered. Applications of the methodology to the task of commissioning and controlling a new reactor such as ITER are discussed.

Human review
How the literature uses it

What this paper does with the arXiv papers it cites

Each citing sentence is taken from the citing paper's LaTeX source and typed by Pith's classifier. A label appears at probability 0.8 or more (0.95 for support), a contest at 0.7 or more; the quoted words are the citing authors'. How each label was checked · JSON

Uses the method or tool of 1 paper
  • Such a model must solve a logistic regression problem, i.e. learning scalar weights $α_predictor$ corresponding to each predictor that sum to one, [equation] PyTorch [ref] is employed to solve the regression problem for the optimal $n_predictors-1$ learnable parameters $α_i$, with the same loss as for the machine learning models (mean squared error on the normalized profiles).
