The paper proposes a novel approach to multimodal predictive neural networks for spatiotemporal systems described by partial differential equations. By combining symbolic expressions with time-series samples, the authors aim to improve forecasting tasks. The key innovation is a new token library based on SymPy that encodes differential equations as an additional modality for time-series models. This approach minimizes manual preprocessing and increases flexibility. The authors also introduce a Bayesian filtering module to refine the learned equation, resulting in improved accuracy.

The paper creates a new way to use math problems (called equations) along with data points to make better predictions about what will happen in the future. It’s like using two different languages to talk about the same thing. The math problems are used as an extra clue to help predict what will happen, and it makes the predictions more accurate. This is useful for things like predicting weather or traffic patterns.
