arXiv:2402. 00152v5 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Constructing the architecture of a neural network is a challenging pursuit for the machine learning community, and the dilemma of whether to go deeper or wider remains a persistent question.

The paper introduces a hybrid iterative deep Ritz method (H-IDRM) for solving interface problems involving second-order elliptic operators. It uses a mixed formulation that reduces the problem to a sequence of convex minimization tasks and employs a level‑set neural network to represent the interface, thereby handling piecewise smooth solutions without explicit interface sampling. The authors analyze errors from neural network, Monte Carlo, iterative, and penalty sources, and demonstrate through numerical experiments that H-IDRM outperforms existing neural solvers on high‑dimensional, complex interface problems.

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.
