Physics-Informed Stochastic Configuration Machine: A Backpropagation-Free Neural Network with Fast Training for Nonlinear Differential Equations

The paper introduces the Physics-Informed Stochastic Configuration Machine (PI‑SCM), a backpropagation‑free neural network designed for solving nonlinear differential equations. By analytically evaluating local Jacobians, PI‑SCM linearizes the physical loss, enabling optimal weight determination through generalized linear least squares and avoiding iterative nonlinear optimization. The authors present a progressive algorithmic suite—PI‑SC‑I, PI‑SC‑II, and PI‑SC‑III—prove their universal approximation properties, and show through experiments that PI‑SCM achieves high‑fidelity predictions and parameter identification while accelerating training by orders of magnitude compared to standard PINNs.

Physics-Informed Error Field Learning: A Post-Training Optimization Framework for Physics-Informed Neural Networks

Physics-Informed Error Field Learning (PIEFL) is a post‑training optimization framework for Physics‑Informed Neural Networks (PINNs). After a primary network reaches satisfactory accuracy, PIEFL introduces an auxiliary error network that learns the discrepancy between the current approximation and the exact solution by deriving error control equations under physical constraints. The learned error correction is then combined with the primary prediction, improving solution accuracy without modifying the primary network architecture and focusing computational resources on correcting existing prediction errors.

Adjoint Method versus Physics-Informed Neural Networks in PDE-Constrained Inverse Problems

arXiv:2606. 12337v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Inverse problems governed by partial differential equations (PDEs) are central to computational mechanics and are commonly solved by adjoint-based optimization, while physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) have emerged as a flexible alternative.

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.

Examining the robustness of Physics-Informed Neural Networks to noise for Inverse Problems

The paper evaluates the robustness of Physics‑Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) against noisy data in inverse problems, comparing them to a finite element method (FEM) plus optimizer baseline. Experiments on viscosity identification in 1D Burgers’ equation and 2D/3D Taylor‑Green Vortex with additive Gaussian noise show that PINNs, while requiring less human expertise, are outperformed by the traditional FEM approach in accuracy (e.g., RMSE 0.01 vs. 0.0013 for 2D Taylor‑Green with σ=1). PINNs do, however, exhibit better scaling with problem complexity, and the study highlights specific training failures that must be addressed for PINNs to become more competitive.

RTS Smoother-Guided Learning of Physics-Based Neural Differential Models

arXiv:2607. 15180v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Ordinary differential equations (ODEs) are widely used to model dynamical systems in physics, biology, neuroscience, and physiology, but in many applications some equations of the dynamics are unknown and only a subset of the state variables are measured.
