Solving Partial Differential Equations With Neural Networks

In this thesis three different approaches for solving partial differential equa-tions with neural networks will be explored; namely Physics-Informed NeuralNetworks, Fourier Neural Operators and the Deep Ritz method. Physics-Informed Neural Networks and the Deep Ritz Method are unsupervised machine learning methods, while the Fourier Neural Operator is a supervised method. The Physics-Informed Neural Network is implemented on Burger’s equation,while the Fourier Neural Operator is implemented on Poisson’s equation and Darcy’s law and the Deep Ritz method is applied to several variational problems. The Physics-Informed Neural Network is also used for the inverse problem; given some data on a solution, the neural network is trained to determine what the underlying partial differential equation is whose solution is given by the data. Apart from this, importance sampling is also implemented to accelerate the training of physics-informed neural networks. The contributions of this thesis are to implement a slightly different form of importance sampling on the physics-informed neural network, to show that the Deep Ritz method can be used for a larger class of variational problems than the original publication suggests and to apply the Fourier Neural Operator on an application in geophyiscs involving Darcy’s law where the coefficient factor is given by exponentiated two-dimensional pink noise.
