Estimating Parameter Fields in Multi-Physics PDEs from Scarce Measurements

The paper introduces Neptune, a method that uses independent coordinate neural networks to infer parameter fields in multi-physics PDEs from sparse measurements. Neptune can accurately estimate parameters with nonlinear, spatiotemporal variations, outperforming existing techniques by reducing estimation errors by up to two orders of magnitude and improving dynamic response predictions by a factor of ten. It also demonstrates strong physical extrapolation, enabling reliable predictions beyond the training data.

Data-efficient Kernel Methods for Learning Hamiltonian Systems

The paper introduces kernel-based methods for learning Hamiltonian systems directly from trajectory data, offering both a 2‑step approach (reconstruct trajectories first, then learn the Hamiltonian) and a 1‑step approach (joint inference). Experiments on mass‑spring dynamics, a nonlinear pendulum, and the Henon‑Heiles system show that the methods achieve accurate, data‑efficient predictions, outperforming 2‑step baselines especially when data are scarce, while preserving the Hamiltonian structure. The authors also provide a priori error estimates and a general numerical framework applicable to arbitrary dynamical systems.
