- 适合需要物理可解释性的科学发现场景,如材料力学研究
神经网络已成为建模物理系统的重要工具,能在数据有限情况下学习复杂表征,并融入基础科学知识。本文提出一种新型神经符号框架,无需显式几何信息,即可直接从稀疏多视角图像序列重建并模拟弹性物体。该方法融合神经辐射场(NeRF)用于物体重建,以及物理信息神经网络(PINN)引入弹性控制偏微分方程。通过图像监督与符号物理约束的协同,学习物体时空变形表征。针对复杂边界与初始条件问题,采用能量约束的PINN架构,替代传统有限元或边界元方法,显著提升模拟精度与结果可解释性。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Neural networks have emerged as a powerful tool for modeling physical systems, offering the ability to learn complex representations from limited data while integrating foundational scientific knowledge. In particular, neuro-symbolic approaches that combine data-driven learning, the neuro, with symbolic equations and rules, the symbolic, address the tension between methods that are purely empirical, which risk straying from established physical principles, and traditional numerical solvers that demand complete geometric knowledge and can be prohibitively expensive for high-fidelity simulations. In this work, we present a novel neuro-symbolic framework for reconstructing and simulating elastic objects directly from sparse multi-view image sequences, without requiring explicit geometric information. Specifically, we integrate a neural radiance field (NeRF) for object reconstruction with physics-informed neural networks (PINN) that incorporate the governing partial differential equations of elasticity. In doing so, our method learns a spatiotemporal representation of deforming objects that leverages both image supervision and symbolic physical constraints. To handle complex boundary and initial conditions, which are traditionally confronted using finite element methods, boundary element methods, or sensor-based measurements, we employ an energy-constrained Physics-Informed Neural Network architecture. This design enhances both simulation accuracy and the explainability of results.
