Asymptotically-informed neural networks for Black-Scholes implied volatility computation

The paper introduces asymptotically-informed neural‑network architectures for computing Black‑Scholes implied volatility. By learning a trainable partition of the price‑log‑moneyness domain and combining specialised local approximations, the models outperform standard feed‑forward networks across a wide range of parameters. The neural‑network outputs also serve as highly accurate initial guesses for a third‑order Householder scheme, enabling near machine‑precision results after only two refinement iterations.

A Zeroth-Order Deep Learning Method for Fully Nonlinear Parabolic Partial Differential Equations with Unknown Coefficients

arXiv:2606. 24999v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: High-dimensional partial differential equations (PDEs) with unknown coefficients arise widely in scientific machine learning, including continuous-time reinforcement learning, yet solving them efficiently in a data-driven way remains challenging.
