      Some statistical insights into PINNs 45m

      Physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) combine the expressiveness of neural networks with the interpretability of physical modeling. Their good practical performance has been demonstrated both in the context of solving partial differential equations and in the context of hybrid modeling, which consists of combining an imperfect physical model with noisy observations. However, most of their theoretical properties remain to be established. We offer some statistical guidelines into the proper use of PINNs.

      Towards instance-dependent approximation guarantees for scientific machine learning using Lipschitz neural networks. 45m

      Neural networks are increasingly used in scientific computing. Indeed, once trained, they can approximate highly complex, non-linear, and high dimensional functions with significantly reduced computational overhead compared to traditional simulation codes based on finite-differences methods. However, unlike conventional simulation whose error can be controlled, neural networks are statistical, data-driven models, for which no approximation error guarantee can be inherently provided. This limitation hinders the use of neural networks on par with finite elements-based simulation codes in scientific computing. In this presentation, we show how to leverage the Lipschitz property of Lipschitz neural networks to establish strict post-training – instance dependent -- error bounds given a set of validation points. We show how to derive error bounds using Voronoï diagrams for a Lipschitz neural network approximating a K-Lipschitz function by taking advantage of recent parallel algorithms. Yet, in most scientific computing applications, the Lipschitz constant of the target function remains unknown. Therefore, we explore strategies to adapt and extend these bounds to the case of unknown Lipschitz constant and illustrate them on simple physical simulation test cases.

      Physics-informed Gaussian process regression : theory and applications 45m

      Gaussian process regression (GPR) is the Bayesian formulation of kernel regression methods used in machine learning. This method may be used to treat regression problems stemming from physical models, the latter typically taking the form of partial differential equations (PDEs).

      In this presentation, we study the question of the design of GPR methods, in relation with a target PDE model. We first provide several necessary and sufficient conditions describing how to rigorously impose certain physical constraints (explicitly, the distributional PDE constraint if the PDE is linear, and the control of the W^{m,p} Sobolev energy norm) on the realizations of a given Gaussian process. These results only involve the kernel of the Gaussian process.

      We then provide a simple application test case, with the estimation of the solution of the 3D wave equation (central in acoustics), as well as the estimation of the physical parameters attached to this PDE. We finish with providing some outlooks concerning the design of finite difference schemes for solving PDEs, as well as the case of nonlinear PDEs.

      These results are a joint work with Pascal Noble (IMT/INSA) and Olivier Roustant (IMT/INSA), which was funded by the Service Hydrographique et Océanographique de la Marine (SHOM).

      Physics-informed polynomial chaos expansion 45m

      Surrogate modeling of costly mathematical models representing physical systems is challenging since it is necessary to fulfill physical constraints in the whole design domain together with specific boundary conditions of investigated systems. Moreover, it is typically not possible to create a large experimental design covering whole input space due to computational burden of original models. Therefore there has been recently a considerable interest in developing surrogate models capable of satisfying physical constraints – spawning an entirely new field of physics-informed machine learning. In this lecture, a recently introduced methodology for the construction of physics-informed polynomial chaos expansion (PC2) that combines the conventional experimental design with additional constraints from the physics of the model will be presented. Physical constraints in PC2 can be represented by a set of differential equations and specified boundary conditions allowing surrogate model to be constructed more accurately with fewer physics-based model evaluations. Although the main purpose of the PC2 lies in combining data and physical constraints, it is also possible to construct surrogate model only from differential equations and boundary conditions alone without requiring evaluations of the original model. It is well known that a significant advantage of surrogate models in form of polynomial chaos expansions are their possibilities in uncertainty quantification including statistical and sensitivity analysis. Efficient uncertainty quantification by PC2 can be performed through analytical post-processing of a reduced basis filtering out the influence of all deterministic space-time variables. Various examples of PDEs with random parameters will be presented to show the efficiency and versatility of PC2 and its benefit for uncertainty quantification.

      Représentation Neural Implicit pour des méthodes numériques hybrides 45m

      Dans une première partie, nous introduirons les méthodes numériques basées sur des représentations Neural Implicit que sont les PINNs et la méthode Neural Galerkin. Nous tenterons de montrer, que ces méthodes, bien qu'ayant des propriétés bien différentes des méthodes numériques usuelles pour les EDP, restent proche dans l'esprit des méthodes classiques. Après avoir discuté des forces et des faiblesses de ces nouvelles approches, nous introduirons des méthodes hybrides combinant PINNs d'un coté et méthodes Eléments Finis ou Galerkin Discontinu de l'autre. Nous discuterons rapidement la convergence de ces approches, que nous illustrerons numériquement.

      Deep augmented physical models: application to reinforcement learning and computer vision 45m

      Modelling and forecasting complex physical systems with only partial knowledge of their dynamics is a major challenge across various scientific fields. Model Based (MB) approaches typically rely on ordinary or partial differential equations (ODE/PDE) and stem from a deep understanding of the underlying physical phenomena. Machine Learning (ML) and deep learning are more prior agnostic and have become state-of-the-art for many prediction tasks; however, modeling complex physical dynamics is still beyond the scope of pure ML methods, which often cannot properly extrapolate to new conditions as MB approaches do. Combining the MB and ML paradigms is an emerging trend to develop the interplay between the two paradigms. In this talk, we will present a principled training scheme called APHYNITY [1] for augmenting incomplete physical models with machine learning, with uniqueness guarantees. We will also present an application of augmented models to model-based reinforcement learning [2], where we show gains of performances compared to simplified physical models and data efficiency compared to pure data-driven models. We will also present an application to optical flow estimation [3], where we leverage the classical brightness constancy assumption.

      Tensor networks and optimal sampling in physics informed machine learning 45m

      Many parametric PDEs have solutions that possess a high degree of regularity with respect to their parameters. Low-rank tensor formats can leverage this regularity to overcome the curse of dimensionality and achieve optimal convergence rates in a wide range of approximation spaces. A particular advantage of these formats is their highly structured nature, which enables us to control the approximation error and sample complexity bounds. In this presentation, we will explore how to take advantage of these benefits to effectively learn the solutions of parametric PDEs.
