FBSDE based Neural Network Algorithms for High-Dimensional Quasilinear Parabolic PDEs


الملخص بالإنكليزية

In this paper, we propose forward and backward stochastic differential equations (FBSDEs) based deep neural network (DNN) learning algorithms for the solution of high dimensional quasilinear parabolic partial differential equations (PDEs), which are related to the FBSDEs by the Pardoux-Peng theory. The algorithms rely on a learning process by minimizing the pathwise difference between two discrete stochastic processes, defined by the time discretization of the FBSDEs and the DNN representation of the PDE solutions, respectively. The proposed algorithms are shown to generate DNN solutions for a 100-dimensional Black--Scholes--Barenblatt equation, accurate in a finite region in the solution space, and has a convergence rate similar to that of the Euler--Maruyama discretization used for the FBSDEs. As a result, a Richardson extrapolation technique over time discretizations can be used to enhance the accuracy of the DNN solutions. For time oscillatory solutions, a multiscale DNN is shown to improve the performance of the FBSDE DNN for high frequencies.
