Abstract: Real-time dynamics of quantum observables provide direct access to excitation spectra and correlation functions in quantum many-body systems, but currently available quantum devices are limited to short evolution times due to decoherence. We propose a neural ordinary differential equation (Neural ODE) framework with a physics-driven neural network to reconstruct long-time operator dynamics from short-time quantum data. By expanding observables in the Pauli basis and exploiting locality and symmetry constraints, the operator evolution is reduced to a tractable set of coefficients whose dynamics are learned from the measurement data. Applied to the Ising spin chain with mixed fields, the operator learning method accurately extrapolates its long-time correlation function and resolves its excitation spectrum. We validate the framework by collecting short-time data from IBM's superconducting quantum processor and successfully reconstruct the Fourier spectrum of an $N=8$ Ising spin chain with 5 times enhanced precision. Our results demonstrate a scalable and data-efficient strategy for extracting dynamical and spectral information from practical quantum hardware.
