arXiv:2608. 11831v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Learning mappings between infinite-dimensional objects is a central challenge in scientific machine learning.
arXiv:2607. 27062v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Physics-informed machine learning incorporates physical principles --often expressed via differential operators-- into data-driven models.
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.
arXiv:2609. 18901v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In physics-informed machine learning, a target function $u^*$ is learned from noisy value observations $y_i=u^*(x_i)+ \varepsilon_i$, together with differential information, given either by noisy observations $d_j=(Du^*)(z_j)+\xi_j$ or by a known physical constraint $Du^*=v$.
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.
The paper introduces a kernel‑based operator learning method that preserves key physical properties—such as incompressibility, periodicity, and turbulence—of the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations. By mapping input functions to expansion coefficients in a property‑preserving kernel basis, the method guarantees that predicted velocity fields analytically maintain these properties. The authors provide theoretical convergence guarantees, develop efficient computational techniques for large‑scale training, and demonstrate significant accuracy and speed improvements over neural operators on 2D and 3D flow benchmarks.
