Research vertical 04 / ManasAI

Models for
physical AI.

Let dynamics do part of the computation.

We investigate learning systems shaped by physical principles: memory, dissipation, geometry, and dynamical evolution. Reservoir computing is a central direction, alongside physics-informed modelling and the interpretation of time-varying signals.

The research question

Can the structure of a dynamical system make learning more interpretable?

Temporal data carries history. Reservoir computing uses a recurrent dynamical system to transform that history into a state from which a readout can learn. We explore how deliberately structured dynamics can make memory, mixing, and stability easier to understand and control.

What we investigate

Three connected
research directions.

Questions guiding this vertical and its contribution to intelligence for inner wellbeing.

Direction 01

Multi-timescale reservoir computing

Investigate architectures with explicit controls for memory retention and mixing. Lindblad-inspired work motivates separating rotation from dissipation in classical models rather than hiding both inside one recurrent operator.

Direction 02

Geometric and context reservoirs

Explore how evolving geometry can encode the order and history of inputs. Chern–Simons context-reservoir work motivates testing which tasks benefit from these structures against matched, simpler controls.

Direction 03

Physics-informed temporal models

Study how physical priors and interpretable state dynamics can support signal modelling. Compare candidate approaches on memory, stability, generalisation, and computational cost before considering deployment.

How we approach it

Structure the dynamics. Test the advantage.

01

Encode

Map a time-varying input into a dynamical state.

02

Evolve

Let structured recurrence mix input with retained history.

03

Read out

Train an output mapping for the task of interest.

04

Compare

Benchmark against simpler reservoirs and other temporal models.

Feasibility and Memory Mechanisms of Chern-Simons Context Reservoir Computation

Jyotiranjan Beuria & Venkatesh H. Chembrolu

A study of memory in a dynamical reservoir organised by Chern–Simons gauge dynamics. Matched comparisons find task-specific benefits for geometry- and order-sensitive processing, rather than a general advantage across reservoir tasks.

Research implication: investigate which dynamical features retain useful history, and compare them against simpler mechanisms.

Connection to inner wellbeing

A research path towards efficient wellness models.

Wearable signals unfold across multiple timescales. We are interested in whether structured temporal models can help represent these histories for personalised wellness research. This is a development direction to evaluate, not a claim that either preprint’s architecture is already deployed in SakshiSense.
