Title: Iterative Refinement Neural Operators are Learned Fixed-Point Solvers: A Principled Approach to Spectral Bias Mitigation

Abstract:
arXiv:2605.24041v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Neural operators serve as fast, data-driven surrogates for scientific modeling but typically rely on a monolithic, single-pass inference procedure that struggles to resolve high-frequency details, a limitation known as spectral bias. We introduce the Iterative Refinement Neural Operator (IRNO), which augments pre-trained operators with a learned refinement module iteratively applied via fixed-point iteration. IRNO decomposes the prediction into a
