Gravity-Awareness: Deep Learning Models and LLM Simulation of Human Awareness in Altered Gravity

arXiv:2511.05536v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Earth s gravity fundamentally shapes human behaviour. The brain encodes this force as an internal model of gravity, enabling the prediction and interpretation of gravitational effects during perception and action. Understanding how this model adapts to altered gravity is critical for predicting human performance in spaceflight. We present a computational framework for modelling neurophysiological adaptation across diverse gravitational environments. The framework has two components trained on open-access data from altered-gravity studie

Why this matters
Why now

The increasing focus on long-duration space missions and off-world habitation necessitates a deeper understanding of human adaptation to altered gravity, which AI is now advanced enough to model effectively.

Why it’s important

This research is critical for predicting human performance and well-being in spaceflight, impacting mission design, astronaut training, and the development of future space infrastructure.

What changes

Our ability to computationally model neurophysiological adaptation to altered gravity improves, moving beyond solely empirical observation to predictive AI frameworks.
