06 — Inverse Reconstruction & Transport Surrogate Benchmarks¶
This notebook benchmarks two key subsystems of SCPN Fusion Core:
Part A — Inverse Reconstruction: Measures the forward-solve overhead that dominates each Levenberg-Marquardt iteration, and compares against EFIT (the community-standard equilibrium reconstruction code).
Part B — Neural Transport Surrogate: Compares the MLP surrogate against the analytic critical-gradient fallback and community baselines (QuaLiKiz gyrokinetic, QLKNN neural surrogate).

Part A — Inverse Reconstruction¶
The Levenberg-Marquardt inverse solver calls the forward Grad-Shafranov equilibrium solver 8 times per iteration (1 baseline + 7 Jacobian finite-difference perturbations for the 7 profile parameters). The forward solve dominates wall time, so we benchmark it directly.
The Rust inverse solver (scpn-fusion-rs) adds Tikhonov regularisation,
Huber robust loss, and per-probe σ-weighting on top of the LM loop.
Their overhead is negligible compared to the forward solve.

Part B — Neural Transport Surrogate¶
The NeuralTransportModel replaces gyrokinetic solvers (like QuaLiKiz)
with a small MLP that runs in microseconds. When no trained weights are
available, it falls back to an analytic critical-gradient model.
We benchmark both modes and compare against community baselines.

QuaLiKiz / QLKNN Comparison¶
The neural transport surrogate targets the same use case as QLKNN (van de Plassche et al., Phys. Plasmas 27, 022310, 2020): replacing expensive gyrokinetic solvers with fast neural network inference.
| Method | Single-point | 100-pt profile | 1000-pt profile | Framework |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| QuaLiKiz (gyrokinetic) | ~1 s | ~100 s | ~1000 s | Fortran |
| QLKNN (TensorFlow) | ~10 µs | ~0.1 ms | ~1 ms | TensorFlow |
| SCPN MLP (numpy, H=64/32) | ~5 µs | ~0.05 ms | ~0.3 ms | NumPy only |
| SCPN fallback (analytic) | ~2 µs | ~0.2 ms | ~2 ms | NumPy only |
Key advantages of the SCPN approach:
- No framework overhead: pure NumPy inference — no TensorFlow/PyTorch import, no GPU context, no session management.
- Transparent fallback: if no trained weights exist, the analytic critical-gradient model kicks in automatically.
- Vectorised profiles:
predict_profile()evaluates the entire radial grid in a single batched matmul — no Python loop over radial points. - Weight versioning: SHA-256 checksums track which weights produced which simulation results, critical for reproducibility.

Summary¶
| Subsystem | Key Finding |
|---|---|
| Inverse reconstruction | Forward solve dominates LM iteration cost; Tikhonov/Huber/σ add negligible overhead. Rust release build approaches EFIT speed (~4 s full reconstruction vs ~2 s for EFIT). |
| Neural transport | MLP surrogate with H=64/32 achieves ~5 µs single-point inference (no framework overhead). Vectorised profile evaluation gives ~100x speedup over point-by-point loop. |
| vs QuaLiKiz | ~200,000x faster than gyrokinetic at single-point; ~2x faster than QLKNN due to zero framework overhead. |
| vs EFIT | Rust inverse solver within 2x of EFIT; Python solver ~100x slower (expected for interpreted code). |

Part C — Extended Baseline Comparison¶
This section measures the computational footprint of each SCPN Fusion Core component and places it in context alongside community fusion codes.
Memory Footprint & FLOP Estimates¶
We measure actual Python-side memory for FusionKernel grids and MLP weights, then estimate FLOP counts analytically from the stencil/matmul structure.
Solver Comparison¶
Bar charts compare SOR-based solvers across grid sizes and place SCPN runtimes on a log-scale chart alongside community codes (GENE, CGYRO, JINTRAC, CHEASE, EFIT, P-EFIT, DREAM).

Part D — Roadmap: GPU, Adaptive Grids, 3D Transport¶
GPU Offload Roadmap (Issue #12)¶
Implementation uses the wgpu crate (cross-platform Vulkan/Metal/D3D12/WebGPU).
See SCPN_FUSION_CORE_COMPREHENSIVE_STUDY.md Section 28 for full details.

Part E — Parallel Jacobian Benchmark¶
The Levenberg-Marquardt inverse solver builds an 8-column Jacobian via
finite differences: one forward solve per perturbed parameter. These
columns are independent — each is a separate GS equilibrium solve with
one parameter nudged by fd_step.
In the latest Rust solver, this loop uses rayon::par_iter to run all 8
forward solves concurrently. On the Python side, we demonstrate the same
concept with concurrent.futures.ThreadPoolExecutor (limited by the GIL
for CPU-bound NumPy, but illustrative of the structure).
This cell measures serial vs simulated-parallel timing to quantify the speedup potential that the Rust rayon implementation delivers natively.
# --- Part E: Serial vs Parallel Jacobian Benchmark ---
#
# We simulate the inverse solver's Jacobian construction:
# Serial: 8 forward solves executed one after another
# Parallel: 8 forward solves via ProcessPoolExecutor (bypasses GIL)
#
# The Rust solver uses rayon::par_iter for the same pattern.

Rayon Parallel Jacobian — Expected Speedup¶
The Rust inverse solver (fusion-core/src/inverse.rs) uses rayon::par_iter
to compute all 8 Jacobian columns concurrently. Each column clones the
FusionKernel, perturbs one parameter, and runs an independent forward solve.
| Cores | Speedup (8 columns) | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1× (serial fallback) | Same as before |
| 4 | ~3.5× | Some overhead from cloning |
| 8 | ~5–6× | Matches column count |
| 16 | ~5–6× | No benefit beyond 8 columns |
Configuration: Set RAYON_NUM_THREADS to control thread count:
RAYON_NUM_THREADS=4 cargo run --release # limit to 4 threads
See also: docs/SOLVER_TUNING_GUIDE.md
§6 for complete Jacobian parallelism documentation.
Part F — Tuned Parameters vs Defaults¶
These runs use the three starter configs from
SOLVER_TUNING_GUIDE.md §8:
- Defaults —
relaxation_factor=0.1, 65×65 grid, 100 max iterations - Conservative —
relaxation_factor=0.05, 1000 max iterations, tighter tolerance - Speed-optimised —
relaxation_factor=0.2, 33×33 grid, loose tolerance
We compare convergence speed, final residual, and transport profile quality.
Hardware: Timings measured on AMD Ryzen 9 5950X (16 cores / 32 threads), 64 GB DDR4-3200, Python 3.11 + NumPy (OpenBLAS). Your results will vary with CPU model and memory bandwidth — use relative speedups for comparison.
