Realistic physical systems are characterised by emergent interactions across multiple length and time scales, posing a significant challenge for predictive machine learning (ML) models. Most scientific ML models focus on a narrow range of…

Evaluation in scientific reconstruction is dominated by pointwise metrics - RMSE, MAE, per-event resolution - under the implicit assumption that lower error means better reconstruction. We show that this assumption fails structurally for…

Almost all existing methods for image restoration are based on optimizing the mean squared error (MSE), even though it is known that the best estimate in terms of MSE may yield a highly atypical image due to the fact that there are many…
