Researchers at Los Alamos National Laboratory have developed a new approach that addresses the limitations of generative AI models. Unlike generative diffusion models, the team’s Discrete Spatial Diffusion approach honors scientific and physics principles. The team validated their model on two challenging scientific applications—subsurface rock microstructures and lithium-ion battery electrodes—with promising results.Researchers at Los Alamos National Laboratory have developed a new approach that addresses the limitations of generative AI models.
