MOD-Net: A Machine Learning Approach via Model-Operator-Data Network for Solving PDEs


الملخص بالإنكليزية

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.
