📝 Abstract
Neural operators have emerged as efficient surrogates for time-dependent physical systems governed by partial differential equations (PDEs), but their future-state predictions are often conditioned only on observed states and static problem descriptors. For control or optimization, however, body motion, inflow, or forcing are prescribed for the query without being determined solely by the observed state. We introduce the Spatiotemporal Conditional Operator (STCO) for prescribed-condition operator learning (PCOL), a common interface that supplies prescribed target-time condition fields to heterogeneous backbone architectures while retaining their architecture-specific core computation and context pathways. Its condition interface combines Flow-Aware Graph Leaf (FAGL) with Dual-Site Feature-wise Linear Modulation (DSFiLM). Non-learned FAGL uses vorticity from the final observed frame to construct a fixed-cardinality adaptive partition, then co-locates the observed history and target-time condition fields at its regional coordinates. DSFiLM injects separate motion, inflow, and force routes before and after operator computation through current-feature-driven slot- and channel-wise gates. We evaluate twelve matched backbone architectures with different existing physical and temporal inputs. The immersed-boundary computational fluid dynamics (CFD) benchmark spans prescribed motion, inflow disturbances, body-force actuation, and morphology. Across twelve matched backbones, three regimes, and two lead ranges, STCO yields mean paired reductions of 31.1% in relative-L2 field error and 24.7% in normalized pressure-derived load error. It also lowers longer-lead field error for 11 backbones, while interventions on individual condition groups produce measurable prediction changes for every group evaluated.
