However, existing adaptive methods often face challenges in implementation complexity and scalability on modern parallel hardware. Here we present dynamic block activation (DBA), an acceleration framework that can be applied to a broad range of continuum simulations by strategically allocating resources on the basis of the dynamic features of the physical model. By exploiting the hierarchical structure of parallel hardware and dynamically activating and deactivating computation blocks, DBA optimizes performance while maintaining accuracy. We demonstrate DBA's effectiveness through solving representative models spanning multiple scientific fields, including materials science, biophysics and fluid dynamics, achieving 216-816 central processing unit core-equivalent speedups on a single graphics processing unit (GPU), up to fivefold acceleration compared with highly optimized GPU code and nearly perfect scalability up to 32 GPUs. By addressing common challenges, such as divergent memory access, and reducing programming burden, DBA offers a promising approach to fully leverage massively parallel systems across multiple scientific computing domains.","PeriodicalId":74246,"journal":{"name":"Nature computational science","volume":" ","pages":"345-354"},"PeriodicalIF":12.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143652544","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Considerable efforts have been invested on developing accelerated methods utilizing sophisticated models and advanced computational hardware. However, the challenge remains to achieve both high efficiency and broad generality in problem-solving. Here we propose a general method, free-energy machine (FEM), based on the ideas of free-energy minimization in statistical physics, combined with automatic differentiation and gradient-based optimization in machine learning. FEM flexibly addresses various COPs within a unified framework and efficiently leverages parallel computational devices such as graphics processing units. We benchmark FEM on diverse COPs including maximum cut, balanced minimum cut and maximum k-satisfiability, scaled to millions of variables, across synthetic and real-world instances. The findings indicate that FEM remarkably outperforms state-of-the-art algorithms tailored for individual COP in both efficiency and efficacy, demonstrating the potential of combining statistical physics and machine learning for broad applications.","PeriodicalId":74246,"journal":{"name":"Nature computational science","volume":" ","pages":"322-332"},"PeriodicalIF":12.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143702183","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here we propose a diversity-aware population modeling framework that can guide targeted strategies in public health and education, by estimating subgroup-level effects and stratifying predictions to capture sociodemographic variability. We leverage Bayesian multilevel regression and post-stratification to systematically quantify inter-individual differences in the relationship between socioeconomic status and cognitive development. Post-stratification enhanced the interpretability of model predictions across underrepresented groups by incorporating US Census data to gain additional insights into smaller subgroups in the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development Study. This ensured that predictions were not skewed by overly heterogeneous or homogeneous representations. Our analyses underscore the importance of combining Bayesian multilevel modeling with post-stratification to validate reliability and provide a more holistic explanation of sociodemographic disparities in our diversity-aware population modeling framework.

Despite the success of various CSP algorithms, their practical applicability remains circumscribed, particularly for large and complex systems. Here, to address this challenge, we show an evolutionary structure generator within the MAGUS (Machine Learning and Graph Theory Assisted Universal Structure Searcher) framework, inspired by the symmetry principle. This generator extracts both global and local features of explored crystal structures using group and graph theory. By integrating an on-the-fly space group miner and fragment reorganizer, augmented by symmetry-kept mutation, our approach generates higher-quality initial structures, reducing the computational costs of CSP tasks. Benchmarking tests show up to fourfold performance improvements. The method also proves valid in complex phosphorus allotrope systems. Furthermore, we apply our approach to the diamond–silicon (111)-(7 × 7) surface system, identifying up to 42 metastable structures within an 18 meV Å−2 energy range, demonstrating the efficacy of our approach in navigating challenging search spaces. This study presents a symmetry principle-biased crystal structure prediction scheme within the MAGUS framework, achieving up to a fourfold performance improvement compared with state-of-the-art methods.","PeriodicalId":74246,"journal":{"name":"Nature computational science","volume":"5 3","pages":"255-267"},"PeriodicalIF":12.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143525452","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
