World Models as Neural Surrogates
for DFT-Scale Materials Property Simulation

Arjun Srivastava · Gaurav Karakoti

A two-stage neural surrogate for high-throughput materials discovery: a JEPA encoder learns physics-informed latent representations of crystal graph structure via masked embedding prediction, and a lightweight transformer readout predicts formation energy, bandgap, and stability — without any quantum-mechanical labels and without performing DFT calculations at inference time.

Concurrency for Accelerating Multi-Modal
Tensor Inference on Resource-Constrained Architectures

Arjun Srivastava

DCTMS is a compile-time framework that analyses a transformer's computational graph before inference and derives a complete tensor lifetime map, physical buffer assignment, and concurrency schedule. On Apple M4 unified memory, it reduces 448 logical tensors to 122 physical buffers (72.77%) and establishes a provable memory envelope before inference begins, cutting latency variance by 55–69% at the 7B scale.

World-Model Latents as Implicit Memory
for Egocentric Video Reasoning

Arjun Srivastava · Gaurav Karakoti

We investigate whether the learned latent representations of a visual world model can serve as a compact memory substrate for long-context egocentric video reasoning. A V-JEPA encoder produces persistent latent state; a small Qwen vision-language model reasons over that state directly — without external retrieval.
