Title: AI Agent for Reverse-Engineering Legacy Finite-Difference Code and Translating to Devito

Abstract:
arXiv:2601.18381v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: To facilitate the transformation of legacy finite difference implementations into the Devito environment, this study develops an integrated AI agent framework. Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and open-source Large Language Models are combined through multi-stage iterative workflows in the system's hybrid LangGraph architecture. The agent constructs an extensive Devito knowledge graph through document parsing, structure-aware segmentation,
