High-fidelity finite-element simulations can provide accurate numerical predictions for side-branch resonators, but large simulation datasets are expensive to generate and purely data-driven surrogates may become unreliable when simulation-labelled data are scarce. This study develops an analytical-prior learning framework that reuses a low-cost analytical model to improve data efficiency under limited high-fidelity simulation budgets.
The paper presents a data‑efficient machine learning framework that incorporates a low‑cost analytical model to enhance predictions of sound‑reduction frequencies in Helmholtz resonators. Two strategies are explored: (1) using the analytical model as a baseline and learning only the discrepancy with limited high‑fidelity simulation data, and (2) distilling the analytical mapping into a learned prior and calibrating it with scarce simulation data. Experiments on rectangular side‑branch resonators show that both approaches significantly reduce prediction error compared to direct learning, achieving mean absolute errors as low as 0.371 Hz with full‑model fine‑tuning.

arXiv:2606. 30495v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Solving heterogeneous Helmholtz equations at high wavenumbers remains challenging because the discretized operator is indefinite, pollution degrades phase accuracy, and scalar coarse-grid correction can discard the local phase and propagation-direction information carried by oscillatory errors.
