DPG loss functions for learning parameter-to-solution maps by neural networks

The paper introduces residual-based loss functions derived from Discontinuous Petrov Galerkin (DPG) discretizations for training neural networks to learn parameter-to-solution maps of PDEs. It focuses on rigorous accuracy certification and demonstrates the approach on an elliptic PDE, showing that DPG-based losses outperform simple least-squares losses, especially for high-contrast diffusion problems. The concepts are applicable to any problem with a stable DPG formulation.

Rigorous Error Certification for Neural PDE Solvers: From Empirical Residuals to Solution Guarantees

The paper presents a theoretical framework for certifying the accuracy of physics‑informed neural networks (PINNs) used to solve partial differential equations. It derives generalization bounds that link the residual loss minimized during training to the actual error in the solution space, showing that if the neural approximation stays within a compact subset, a vanishing residual guarantees convergence to the true solution. Deterministic and probabilistic convergence results are provided, offering explicit error guarantees based on residual, boundary, and initial condition errors.
