A machine learning framework for data driven acceleration of computations of differential equations
We propose a machine learning framework to accelerate numerical computations
of time-dependent ODEs and PDEs. Our method is based on recasting
(generalizations of) existing numerical methods as artificial neural networks,
with a set of trainable parameters. These parameters are determined in an
offline training process by (approximately) minimizing suitable (possibly
non-convex) loss functions by (stochastic) gradient descent methods. The
proposed algorithm is designed to be always consistent with the underlying
differential equation. Numerical experiments involving both linear and
non-linear ODE and PDE model problems demonstrate a significant gain in
computational efficiency over standard numerical methods
