用智能代理自动发现复杂介质中的偏微分方程及其空间系数。

Discovering PDEs in heterogeneous media requires jointly identifying the governing operator and the unknown spatial fields that parameterize it. These tasks are coupled: changing field placement changes the differential law, while a sufficiently flexible field can conceal structural error on a single trajectory. We present Hypothesize, Evaluate, Refine for PDE Discovery (HER-PDE), a scientific-agent framework that discovers compositional PDE structure together with nonparametric, time-invariant coefficient fields. The Agent analyzes two noisy trajectories generated by different excitations, proposes complete expression-tree hypotheses, and combines creative structural exploration with local candidate refinement. Its Hypothesis Evaluation Interface (HEI) estimates only the fields explicitly declared in each hypothesis, never adds missing terms, and scores structures by bidirectional cross-excitation transfer. The selected law is subsequently audited on a sealed temporal interval. Across five controlled two-dimensional systems observed with 5 percent relative Gaussian state noise, the Agent recovers the generating operator in all five cases, including equivalent signed-field and product-rule parameterizations. Across nine unknown coefficient fields, the recovered fields attain a median Pearson correlation of approximately 0.85 and a median relative L2 error of approximately 0.28. These results show that agent-guided hypothesis refinement can recover heterogeneous governing laws without prescribing a parametric form for their spatial coefficients.
