Neural surrogates for crystal growth dynamics with variable supersaturation: explicit vs. implicit conditioning

ArXi:2604.21753v1 Announce Type: cross Simulations of crystal growth are performed by using Convolutional Recurrent Neural Network surrogate models, trained on a dataset of time sequences computed by numerical integration of Allen-Cahn dynamics including faceting via kinetic anisotropy. Two network architectures are developed to take into account the effects of a variable supersaturation value. The first infers it implicitly by processing an input mini-sequence of a few evolution frames and then returns a consistent continuation of the evolution.
