An Introduction to Sparse Identification of Nonlinear Dynamics for Engineering Applications
Many engineering problems involve phenomena whose governing equations are poorly characterized or only partially known. Surrogate modeling techniques such as neural networks can capture the behavior of these systems, but they typically demand large training datasets that are difficult to obtain in engineering contexts and yield models with limited physical interpretability. The Sparse Identification of Nonlinear Dynamics (SINDy) method addresses both limitations by performing sparse regression over libraries of candidate nonlinear terms, recovering interpretable governing equations from compar
Memory Augmentation Unlocks Efficient Chain-of-Thought Reasoning
Large language models often rely on Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning to solve complex tasks, but verbose reasoning traces introduce substantial inference overhead. CoT compression shortens generation, yet aggressive compression may disrupt logical coherence and degrade performance. We formalize this trade-off as the \textit{Context-Generation Substitution Law}, where explicit reasoning context substitutes for part of decode-time generation. Based on this principle, we propose \textit{Memory-Augmented Compression}, a training-free framework that constructs reusable reasoning memories from histo
