\frac{\mathrm{d} \mathbf{v}}{\mathrm{d} a } = \frac{1}{a^2 E(a)}\mathbf{F}(\mathbf{x},a)
\mathbf{F}_\theta(\mathbf{x},a) = \frac{3 \Omega_m}{2} \nabla \left[\phi^\mathrm{PM}(\mathbf{x}) + \phi^\mathrm{corr}_\theta(\mathbf{x}, a, \phi^\mathrm{PM}, \delta^\mathrm{PM}) \right]
\mathbf{F}(\mathbf{x},a) = \frac{3 \Omega_m}{2} \nabla \phi^\mathrm{PM}(\mathbf{x})

Gravitational Potential

1. CNN

2. Read features at position using attention

h_\theta(\mathbf{x})
\mathbf{F}_\theta(\mathbf{x},a) = f_\theta(h_\theta(\mathbf{x}), a)

3. Compute correction to force

4. Run corrected simulation

d_{\rm pm}
W_{\rm m} = f_\theta(d_{\rm pm}, h_{\rm m})
h(x) = \sum_m w_{\rm m} h_{\rm m}

Improving small scales?

p(x_{\rm LR}|x_{\rm HR})

Do we need particle-particle interactions?

Turn probabilistic!
