We propose characteristics-informed neural networks (CINN), a simple and efficient machine learning approach for solving forward and inverse problems involving hyperbolic PDEs. Like physics-informed neural networks (PINN), CINN is a meshless machine learning solver with universal approximation capabilities. Unlike PINN, which enforces a PDE softly via a multi-part loss function, CINN encodes the characteristics of the PDE in a general-purpose deep neural network by adding a characteristic layer. This neural network is trained with the usual MSE data-fitting regression loss and does not require residual losses on collocation points. This leads to faster training and can avoid well-known pathologies of gradient descent optimization of multi-part PINN loss functions. This paper focuses on linear transport phenomena, in which case it is shown that, if the characteristic ODEs can be solved exactly, then the output of a CINN is an exact solution of the PDE, even at initialization, preventing the occurrence of non-physical solutions. In addition, a CINN can also be trained with soft penalty constraints that enforce, for example, periodic or Neumman boundary conditions, without losing the property that the output satisfies the PDE automatically. We also propose an architecture that extends the CINN approach to linear hyperbolic systems of PDEs. All CINN architectures proposed here can be trained end-to-end from sample data using standard deep learning software. Experiments with the simple advection equation, a stiff periodic advection equation, and an acoustics problem where data from one field is used to predict the other, unseen field, indicate that CINN is able to improve on the accuracy of the baseline PINN, in some cases by a considerable margin, while also being significantly faster to train and avoiding non-physical solutions. An extension to nonlinear PDEs is also briefly discussed.

Emerging technologies like hypersonic aircraft, space exploration vehicles, and batteries avail fluid circulation in embedded microvasculatures for efficient thermal regulation. Modeling is vital during these engineered systems' design and operational phases. However, many challenges exist in developing a modeling framework. What is lacking is an accurate framework that (i) captures sharp jumps in the thermal flux across complex vasculature layouts, (ii) deals with oblique derivatives (involving tangential and normal components), (iii) handles nonlinearity because of radiative heat transfer, (iv) provides a high-speed forecast for real-time monitoring, and (v) facilitates robust inverse modeling. This paper addresses these challenges by availing the power of physics-informed neural networks (PINNs). We develop a fast, reliable, and accurate Scientific Machine Learning (SciML) framework for vascular-based thermal regulation -- called CoolPINNs: a PINNs-based modeling framework for active cooling. The proposed mesh-less framework elegantly overcomes all the mentioned challenges. The significance of the reported research is multi-fold. First, the framework is valuable for real-time monitoring of thermal regulatory systems because of rapid forecasting. Second, researchers can address complex thermoregulation designs inasmuch as the approach is mesh-less. Finally, the framework facilitates systematic parameter identification and inverse modeling studies, perhaps the current framework's most significant utility.
We present a dimension-reduced KRnet map approach (DR-KRnet) for high-dimensional Bayesian inverse problems, which is based on an explicit construction of a map that pushes forward the prior measure to the posterior measure in the latent space. Our approach consists of two main components: data-driven VAE prior and density approximation of the posterior of the latent variable. In reality, it may not be trivial to initialize a prior distribution that is consistent with available prior data; in other words, the complex prior information is often beyond simple hand-crafted priors. We employ variational autoencoder (VAE) to approximate the underlying distribution of the prior dataset, which is achieved through a latent variable and a decoder. Using the decoder provided by the VAE prior, we reformulate the problem in a low-dimensional latent space. In particular, we seek an invertible transport map given by KRnet to approximate the posterior distribution of the latent variable. Moreover, an efficient physics-constrained surrogate model without any labeled data is constructed to reduce the computational cost of solving both forward and adjoint problems involved in likelihood computation. With numerical experiments, we demonstrate the accuracy and efficiency of DR-KRnet for high-dimensional Bayesian inverse problems.
Continuum models for ion transport through polyamide nanopores require solving partial differential equations (PDEs) through complex pore geometries. Resolving spatiotemporal features at this length and time-scale can make solving these equations computationally intractable. In addition, mechanistic models frequently require functional relationships between ion interaction parameters under nano-confinement, which are often too challenging to measure experimentally or know a priori. In this work, we develop the first physics-informed deep learning model to learn ion transport behaviour across polyamide nanopores. The proposed architecture leverages neural differential equations in conjunction with classical closure models as inductive biases directly encoded into the neural framework. The neural differential equations are pre-trained on simulated data from continuum models and fine-tuned on independent experimental data to learn ion rejection behaviour. Gaussian noise augmentations from experimental uncertainty estimates are also introduced into the measured data to improve model generalization. Our approach is compared to other physics-informed deep learning models and shows strong agreement with experimental measurements across all studied datasets.
Recent advances of data-driven machine learning have revolutionized fields like computer vision, reinforcement learning, and many scientific and engineering domains. In many real-world and scientific problems, systems that generate data are governed by physical laws. Recent work shows that it provides potential benefits for machine learning models by incorporating the physical prior and collected data, which makes the intersection of machine learning and physics become a prevailing paradigm. By integrating the data and mathematical physics models seamlessly, it can guide the machine learning model towards solutions that are physically plausible, improving accuracy and efficiency even in uncertain and high-dimensional contexts. In this survey, we present this learning paradigm called Physics-Informed Machine Learning (PIML) which is to build a model that leverages empirical data and available physical prior knowledge to improve performance on a set of tasks that involve a physical mechanism. We systematically review the recent development of physics-informed machine learning from three perspectives of machine learning tasks, representation of physical prior, and methods for incorporating physical prior. We also propose several important open research problems based on the current trends in the field. We argue that encoding different forms of physical prior into model architectures, optimizers, inference algorithms, and significant domain-specific applications like inverse engineering design and robotic control is far from being fully explored in the field of physics-informed machine learning. We believe that the interdisciplinary research of physics-informed machine learning will significantly propel research progress, foster the creation of more effective machine learning models, and also offer invaluable assistance in addressing long-standing problems in related disciplines.
Neural Operators offer a powerful, data-driven tool for solving parametric PDEs as they can represent maps between infinite-dimensional function spaces. In this work, we employ physics-informed Neural Operators in the context of high-dimensional, Bayesian inverse problems. Traditional solution strategies necessitate an enormous, and frequently infeasible, number of forward model solves, as well as the computation of parametric derivatives. In order to enable efficient solutions, we extend Deep Operator Networks (DeepONets) by employing a RealNVP architecture which yields an invertible and differentiable map between the parametric input and the branch-net output. This allows us to construct accurate approximations of the full posterior, irrespective of the number of observations and the magnitude of the observation noise, without any need for additional forward solves nor for cumbersome, iterative sampling procedures. We demonstrate the efficacy and accuracy of the proposed methodology in the context of inverse problems for three benchmarks: an anti-derivative equation, reaction-diffusion dynamics and flow through porous media.
Aligning a robot's trajectory or map to the inertial frame is a critical capability that is often difficult to do accurately even though inertial measurement units (IMUs) can observe absolute roll and pitch with respect to gravity. Accelerometer biases and scale factor errors from the IMU's initial calibration are often the major source of inaccuracies when aligning the robot's odometry frame with the inertial frame, especially for low-grade IMUs. Practically, one would simultaneously estimate the true gravity vector, accelerometer biases, and scale factor to improve measurement quality but these quantities are not observable unless the IMU is sufficiently excited. While several methods estimate accelerometer bias and gravity, they do not explicitly address the observability issue nor do they estimate scale factor. We present a fixed-lag factor-graph-based estimator to address both of these issues. In addition to estimating accelerometer scale factor, our method mitigates limited observability by optimizing over a time window an order of magnitude larger than existing methods with significantly lower computational burden. The proposed method, which estimates accelerometer intrinsics and gravity separately from the other states, is enabled by a novel, velocity-agnostic measurement model for intrinsics and gravity, as well as a new method for gravity vector optimization on S2. Accurate IMU state prediction, gravity-alignment, and roll/pitch drift correction are experimentally demonstrated on public and self-collected datasets in diverse environments.
Hyper-parameter optimization is one of the most tedious yet crucial steps in training machine learning models. There are numerous methods for this vital model-building stage, ranging from domain-specific manual tuning guidelines suggested by the oracles to the utilization of general-purpose black-box optimization techniques. This paper proposes an agent-based collaborative technique for finding near-optimal values for any arbitrary set of hyper-parameters (or decision variables) in a machine learning model (or general function optimization problem). The developed method forms a hierarchical agent-based architecture for the distribution of the searching operations at different dimensions and employs a cooperative searching procedure based on an adaptive width-based random sampling technique to locate the optima. The behavior of the presented model, specifically against the changes in its design parameters, is investigated in both machine learning and global function optimization applications, and its performance is compared with that of two randomized tuning strategies that are commonly used in practice. According to the empirical results, the proposed model outperformed the compared methods in the experimented classification, regression, and multi-dimensional function optimization tasks, notably in a higher number of dimensions and in the presence of limited on-device computational resources.
Graph neural networks generalize conventional neural networks to graph-structured data and have received widespread attention due to their impressive representation ability. In spite of the remarkable achievements, the performance of Euclidean models in graph-related learning is still bounded and limited by the representation ability of Euclidean geometry, especially for datasets with highly non-Euclidean latent anatomy. Recently, hyperbolic space has gained increasing popularity in processing graph data with tree-like structure and power-law distribution, owing to its exponential growth property. In this survey, we comprehensively revisit the technical details of the current hyperbolic graph neural networks, unifying them into a general framework and summarizing the variants of each component. More importantly, we present various HGNN-related applications. Last, we also identify several challenges, which potentially serve as guidelines for further flourishing the achievements of graph learning in hyperbolic spaces.
The conjoining of dynamical systems and deep learning has become a topic of great interest. In particular, neural differential equations (NDEs) demonstrate that neural networks and differential equation are two sides of the same coin. Traditional parameterised differential equations are a special case. Many popular neural network architectures, such as residual networks and recurrent networks, are discretisations. NDEs are suitable for tackling generative problems, dynamical systems, and time series (particularly in physics, finance, ...) and are thus of interest to both modern machine learning and traditional mathematical modelling. NDEs offer high-capacity function approximation, strong priors on model space, the ability to handle irregular data, memory efficiency, and a wealth of available theory on both sides. This doctoral thesis provides an in-depth survey of the field. Topics include: neural ordinary differential equations (e.g. for hybrid neural/mechanistic modelling of physical systems); neural controlled differential equations (e.g. for learning functions of irregular time series); and neural stochastic differential equations (e.g. to produce generative models capable of representing complex stochastic dynamics, or sampling from complex high-dimensional distributions). Further topics include: numerical methods for NDEs (e.g. reversible differential equations solvers, backpropagation through differential equations, Brownian reconstruction); symbolic regression for dynamical systems (e.g. via regularised evolution); and deep implicit models (e.g. deep equilibrium models, differentiable optimisation). We anticipate this thesis will be of interest to anyone interested in the marriage of deep learning with dynamical systems, and hope it will provide a useful reference for the current state of the art.
Since deep neural networks were developed, they have made huge contributions to everyday lives. Machine learning provides more rational advice than humans are capable of in almost every aspect of daily life. However, despite this achievement, the design and training of neural networks are still challenging and unpredictable procedures. To lower the technical thresholds for common users, automated hyper-parameter optimization (HPO) has become a popular topic in both academic and industrial areas. This paper provides a review of the most essential topics on HPO. The first section introduces the key hyper-parameters related to model training and structure, and discusses their importance and methods to define the value range. Then, the research focuses on major optimization algorithms and their applicability, covering their efficiency and accuracy especially for deep learning networks. This study next reviews major services and toolkits for HPO, comparing their support for state-of-the-art searching algorithms, feasibility with major deep learning frameworks, and extensibility for new modules designed by users. The paper concludes with problems that exist when HPO is applied to deep learning, a comparison between optimization algorithms, and prominent approaches for model evaluation with limited computational resources.
