This novel framework, PANIS, proposes a data-driven approach to learn surrogates for parametrized Partial Differential Equations (PDEs). It combines a physics-aware implicit solver with a probabilistic learning objective, using weighted residuals to probe the PDE and generate virtual data. This enables generalization in out-of-distribution settings, such as different boundary conditions. The framework is demonstrated on random heterogeneous materials, where input parameters represent material microstructure, and extended to multiscale problems. PANIS can accommodate existing learning objectives and architectures while yielding probabilistic surrogates that quantify predictive uncertainty.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
PANIS is a new way to learn about complicated math problems called Partial Differential Equations (PDEs). These PDEs are used to describe things like how heat moves through a material or how water flows in a pipe. The problem is that these PDEs can be really hard to solve, especially when they involve many variables and complex shapes. PANIS makes it easier by using a special kind of computer program called a neural network to create an approximation of the real solution. This approximation, or “surrogate,” can then be used to make predictions about the behavior of the system without having to actually solve the original PDE.
