Latent attention on masked patches for flow reconstruction
Vision transformers have shown outstanding performance in image generation, yet their adoption in fluid dynamics remains limited. We introduce the Latent Attention on Masked Patches (LAMP) model, an interpretable regression-based modified vision transformer designed for masked flow reconstruction. LAMP follows a three-fold strategy: (i) partition of each flow snapshot into patches, (ii) patch-wise dimensionality reduction via proper orthogonal decomposition, and (iii) reconstruction of the full field from a masked input using a single-layer transformer trained via closed-form linear regression. We test the method on two canonical 2D unsteady wakes: a laminar wake past a bluff body, and a ...
