PDE-PFN is a prior‑data fitted neural solver that uses in‑context learning to approximate the posterior predictive mean of partial differential equation (PDE) solutions. It builds on a Transformer‑based PFN architecture with self‑ and cross‑attention, and is pre‑trained on noisy approximate solutions generated by physics‑informed neural networks. Experiments on various two‑dimensional PDEs show that PDE‑PFN generalizes across heterogeneous equations, remains robust to noisy priors, and can perform zero‑gradient‑update inference while achieving competitive or better predictive accuracy compared to baselines.

The paper presents a method to recover unknown functional terms in partial differential equations (PDEs) by embedding neural networks into standard parameter estimation workflows. By training on data, the approach learns interaction kernels and external potentials in nonlocal aggregation‑diffusion equations, achieving high accuracy. The study systematically investigates how reconstruction accuracy depends on solution diversity, sampling density, and measurement noise.
