Network modeling characterizes the underlying principles of structural properties and is of vital significance for simulating dynamical processes in real world. However, bridging structure and dynamics is always challenging due to the multiple complexities in real systems. Here, through introducing the individual's activity rate and the possibility of group interaction, we propose a probabilistic activity-driven (PAD) model that could generate temporal higher-order networks with both power-law and high-clustering characteristics, which successfully links the two most critical structural features and a basic dynamical pattern in extensive complex systems. Surprisingly, the power-law exponents and the clustering coefficients of the aggregated PAD network could be tuned in a wide range by altering a set of model parameters. We further provide an approximation algorithm to select the proper parameters that can generate networks with given structural properties, the effectiveness of which is verified by fitting various real-world networks. Finally, we construct the co-evolution framework of the PAD model and higher-order contagion dynamics and derive the critical conditions for phase transition and bistable phenomenon using theoretical and numerical methods. Results show that tendency of participating in higher-order interactions can promote the emergence of bistability but delay the outbreak under heterogeneous activity rates. Our model provides a basic tool to reproduce complex structural properties and to study the widespread higher-order dynamics, which has great potential for applications across fields.

Analytical solutions are practical tools in ocean engineering, but their derivation is often constrained by the complexities of the real world. This underscores the necessity for alternative approaches. In this study, the potential of Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINN) for solving the one-dimensional vertical suspended sediment mixing (settling-diffusion) equation which involves simplified and arbitrary vertical Ds profiles is explored. A new approach of temporal Normalized Physics-Informed Neural Networks (T-NPINN), which normalizes the time component is proposed, and it achieves a remarkable accuracy (Mean Square Error of 10 − 5 and Relative Error Loss of 10 − 4 ). T-NPINN also proves its ability to handle the challenges posed by long-duration spatiotemporal models, which is a formidable task for conventional PINN methods. In addition, the T-NPINN is free of the limitations of numerical methods, e.g., the susceptibility to inaccuracies stemming from the discretization and approximations intrinsic to their algorithms, particularly evident within intricate and dynamic oceanic environments. The demonstrated accuracy and versatility of T-NPINN make it a compelling complement to numerical techniques, effectively bridging the gap between analytical and numerical approaches and enriching the toolkit available for oceanic research and engineering.
