Harnessing Artificial Intelligence for Precision Physics: A Machine Learning Framework for Data Reconstruction in Support of India's Deep-Tech Missions
Abstract
India's emergence as a global leader in deep-tech innovation is driven by ambitious scientific megaprojects, including the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO)-India, the X-ray Polarimeter Satellite (XPoSat), the Aditya-L1 solar observatory, and the National Quantum Mission (NQM). However, the unprecedented scale and complexity of the observational data generated by these missions present severe computational bottlenecks. Traditional analytical frameworks struggle with non-stationary noise transients, diffusion blurring, and the exponential scaling limits inherent in multidimensional physical systems. This paper proposes a comprehensive, publicationready machine learning framework specifically engineered for precision physics data reconstruction. The tripartite framework integrates Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) and Physics- Informed Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks (PIKANs) to enforce strict adherence to governing physical laws; selective State Space Models (SSMs), specifically the Mamba architecture, to achieve lineartime sequence modeling for continuous telemetry; and Geometric Deep Learning (GDL), including Hypernetwork-modulated Restricted Boltzmann Machines (HyperRBMs), to preserve spatial symmetries in non-Euclidean domains. Our analysis demonstrates that the deployment of reinforcement learning via Deep Loop Shaping successfully reduces optomechanical mirror jitter in gravitational-wave interferometers by a factor of 30 to 100 compared to classical controllers. Furthermore, the application of deep convolutional ensembles for X-ray polarimetry reduces required observation exposure times by approximately 40%. In the quantum domain, parametric Quantum State Tomography (QST) utilizing GDL achieves over 90% reconstruction fidelity for multi-qubit systems while completely bypassing the traditional exponential measurement barrier. By transitioning artificial intelligence from a passive post-processing tool to an integrated, physics-constrained component of experimental instrumentation, this framework provides the essential computational scaffolding required to maximize the scientific yield of India's sovereign deep-tech megaprojects through 2026 and beyond.
