In this paper, we propose a model-operator-data network (MOD-Net) for solving PDEs. A MOD-Net is driven by a model to solve PDEs based on operator representation with regularization from data. In this work, we use a deep neural network to parameterize the Greens function. The empirical risk consists of the mean square of the governing equation, boundary conditions, and a few labels, which are numerically computed by traditional schemes on coarse grid points with cheap computation cost. With only the labeled dataset or only the model constraints, it is insufficient to accurately train a MOD-Net for complicate problems. Intuitively, the labeled dataset works as a regularization in addition to the model constraints. The MOD-Net is much efficient than original neural operator because the MOD-Net also uses the information of governing equation and the boundary conditions of the PDE rather than purely the expensive labels. Since the MOD-Net learns the Greens function of a PDE, it solves a type of PDEs but not a specific case. We numerically show MOD-Net is very efficient in solving Poisson equation and one-dimensional Boltzmann equation. For non-linear PDEs, where the concept of the Greens function does not apply, the non-linear MOD-Net can be similarly used as an ansatz for solving non-linear PDEs.

This paper proposes a mesh-free computational framework and machine learning theory for solving elliptic PDEs on unknown manifolds, identified with point clouds, based on diffusion maps (DM) and deep learning. The PDE solver is formulated as a supervised learning task to solve a least-squares regression problem that imposes an algebraic equation approximating a PDE (and boundary conditions if applicable). This algebraic equation involves a graph-Laplacian type matrix obtained via DM asymptotic expansion, which is a consistent estimator of second-order elliptic differential operators. The resulting numerical method is to solve a highly non-convex empirical risk minimization problem subjected to a solution from a hypothesis space of neural-network type functions. In a well-posed elliptic PDE setting, when the hypothesis space consists of feedforward neural networks with either infinite width or depth, we show that the global minimizer of the empirical loss function is a consistent solution in the limit of large training data. When the hypothesis space is a two-layer neural network, we show that for a sufficiently large width, the gradient descent method can identify a global minimizer of the empirical loss function. Supporting numerical examples demonstrate the convergence of the solutions and the effectiveness of the proposed solver in avoiding numerical issues that hampers the traditional approach when a large data set becomes available, e.g., large matrix inversion.
Random ordinary differential equations (RODEs), i.e. ODEs with random parameters, are often used to model complex dynamics. Most existing methods to identify unknown governing RODEs from observed data often rely on strong prior knowledge. Extracting the governing equations from data with less prior knowledge remains a great challenge. In this paper, we propose a deep neural network, called RODE-Net, to tackle such challenge by fitting a symbolic expression of the differential equation and the distribution of parameters simultaneously. To train the RODE-Net, we first estimate the parameters of the unknown RODE using the symbolic networks cite{long2019pde} by solving a set of deterministic inverse problems based on the measured data, and use a generative adversarial network (GAN) to estimate the true distribution of the RODEs parameters. Then, we use the trained GAN as a regularization to further improve the estimation of the ODEs parameters. The two steps are operated alternatively. Numerical results show that the proposed RODE-Net can well estimate the distribution of model parameters using simulated data and can make reliable predictions. It is worth noting that, GAN serves as a data driven regularization in RODE-Net and is more effective than the $ell_1$ based regularization that is often used in system identifications.
In recent work it has been established that deep neural networks are capable of approximating solutions to a large class of parabolic partial differential equations without incurring the curse of dimension. However, all this work has been restricted to problems formulated on the whole Euclidean domain. On the other hand, most problems in engineering and the sciences are formulated on finite domains and subjected to boundary conditions. The present paper considers an important such model problem, namely the Poisson equation on a domain $Dsubset mathbb{R}^d$ subject to Dirichlet boundary conditions. It is shown that deep neural networks are capable of representing solutions of that problem without incurring the curse of dimension. The proofs are based on a probabilistic representation of the solution to the Poisson equation as well as a suitable sampling method.
Designing an optimal deep neural network for a given task is important and challenging in many machine learning applications. To address this issue, we introduce a self-adaptive algorithm: the adaptive network enhancement (ANE) method, written as loops of the form train, estimate and enhance. Starting with a small two-layer neural network (NN), the step train is to solve the optimization problem at the current NN; the step estimate is to compute a posteriori estimator/indicators using the solution at the current NN; the step enhance is to add new neurons to the current NN. Novel network enhancement strategies based on the computed estimator/indicators are developed in this paper to determine how many new neurons and when a new layer should be added to the current NN. The ANE method provides a natural process for obtaining a good initialization in training the current NN; in addition, we introduce an advanced procedure on how to initialize newly added neurons for a better approximation. We demonstrate that the ANE method can automatically design a nearly minimal NN for learning functions exhibiting sharp transitional layers as well as discontinuous solutions of hyperbolic partial differential equations.
This article presents a general framework for recovering missing dynamical systems using available data and machine learning techniques. The proposed framework reformulates the prediction problem as a supervised learning problem to approximate a map that takes the memories of the resolved and identifiable unresolved variables to the missing components in the resolved dynamics. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed framework with a theoretical guarantee of a path-wise convergence of the resolved variables up to finite time and numerical tests on prototypical models in various scientific domains. These include the 57-mode barotropic stress models with multiscale interactions that mimic the blocked and unblocked patterns observed in the atmosphere, the nonlinear Schr{o}dinger equation which found many applications in physics such as optics and Bose-Einstein-Condense, the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation which spatiotemporal chaotic pattern formation models trapped ion mode in plasma and phase dynamics in reaction-diffusion systems. While many machine learning techniques can be used to validate the proposed framework, we found that recurrent neural networks outperform kernel regression methods in terms of recovering the trajectory of the resolved components and the equilibrium one-point and two-point statistics. This superb performance suggests that recurrent neural networks are an effective tool for recovering the missing dynamics that involves approximation of high-dimensional functions.
