On the training of physics-informed neural operators for solving parametric partial differential equations

arXiv:2606. 06164v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Physics-informed neural operators (PINOs) aim to learn solution operators for partial differential equations by using the governing physics as supervision, rather than relying solely on paired input-output simulation data.

Enhancing Physics-Informed Neural Networks with Domain-aware Fourier Features: Towards Improved Performance and Interpretable Results

The paper proposes Domain-aware Fourier Features (DaFFs) for Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs), embedding domain-specific geometry and boundary conditions into the positional encoding. DaFFs eliminate the need for explicit boundary loss terms, simplify optimization, and reduce training cost, leading to orders-of-magnitude lower errors and faster convergence compared to vanilla PINNs and RFF-based PINNs. An LRP-based explainability framework further shows that DaFFs produce more physically consistent relevance attributions, improving interpretability.

On the training of physics-informed neural operators for solving parametric partial differential equations

Physics-informed neural operators (PINOs) aim to learn solution operators for partial differential equations by using the governing physics as supervision, rather than relying solely on paired input-output simulation data. By incorporating physical constraints into the training objective, PINOs combine the cross-instance generalization of neural operators with the data efficiency of physics-informed learning.

Lecture notes on Physics Informed Neural Networks, Neural Operators, and their applications

These lecture notes accompany the PhD course "Physics Informed Neural Network" offered at the University of Bozen/Bolzano in 2025/2026. They introduce Physics Informed Deep Neural Networks (PINNs) and Neural Operators (NOs), covering implementation from scratch in PyTorch and with libraries such as NVIDIA PhysicsNeMo. The notes also discuss advanced topics like Mixture-of-Models, Fourier Neural Operators, and Physics‑Informed Kolmogorov‑Arnold Networks (PIKANs).

Linearized PINN with pretrained nonlinear layers

The paper introduces a linearized Physics-Informed Neural Network (lPINN), a reduced‑order neural basis approach for solving forward and inverse differential equations. In an offline phase, lPINN learns continuous, differentiable neural basis functions from numerical solutions, which are then frozen for new problem instances; the online solution is obtained by minimizing the governing‑equation residual with additional constraints. Experiments on advection‑diffusion, Burgers', and nonlinear pendulum equations show that lPINN achieves lower solution and parameter errors than vanilla PINNs while reducing online inference times by up to three orders of magnitude, and its continuous representation generalizes to finer meshes without retraining.
