用稀疏径向基网络解偏微分方程,理论扎实且计算高效。

Sparse RBF Networks for PDEs and nonlocal equations: function space theory, operator calculus, and training algorithms

  • 基于自适应宽度核网络,统一刻画解空间为贝索夫空间。
  • 可解析计算微分与非局部算子,包括分数拉普拉斯算子。
  • 实证表明对核函数不敏感,适合高阶、各向异性方程求解。

本文系统分析并扩展了用于求解非线性偏微分方程(PDEs)的稀疏径向基函数网络(SparseRBFnet)。基于其自适应宽度的浅层核网络结构,研究了其函数空间表征、算子评估与计算算法。在弱假设下,该解空间可统一描述为贝索夫空间,与具体核函数选择无关。进一步证明,显式的核结构支持微分与非局部算子(包括分数拉普拉斯算子)的准解析评估。在计算层面,通过对比不同变体,研究了自适应宽度网络与三阶段训练策略,评估了二阶优化、内权训练、网络自适应性及各向异性核参数化的作用。高阶、分数阶与各向异性PDE基准测试表明,结果对核函数选择具有统计不敏感性,同时揭示了精度、稀疏性与计算成本间的权衡。这些成果巩固并推广了SparseRBFnet的理论与计算框架,支持高精度稀疏表示与高效算子评估,并为建模与算法选择提供理论指导。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

This work presents a systematic analysis and extension of the sparse radial basis function network (SparseRBFnet) previously introduced for solving nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs). Based on its adaptive-width shallow kernel network formulation, we further investigate its function-space characterization, operator evaluation, and computational algorithm. We provide a unified description of the solution space for a broad class of radial basis functions (RBFs). Under mild assumptions, this space admits a characterization as a Besov space, independent of the specific kernel choice. We further demonstrate how the explicit kernel-based structure enables quasi-analytical evaluation of both differential and nonlocal operators, including fractional Laplacians. On the computational end, we study the adaptive-width network and related three-phase training strategy through a comparison with variants concerning the modeling and algorithmic details. In particular, we assess the roles of second-order optimization, inner-weight training, network adaptivity, and anisotropic kernel parameterizations. Numerical experiments on high-order, fractional, and anisotropic PDE benchmarks illustrate the empirical insensitivity to kernel choice, as well as the resulting trade-offs between accuracy, sparsity, and computational cost. Collectively, these results consolidate and generalize the theoretical and computational framework of SparseRBFnet, supporting accurate sparse representations with efficient operator evaluation and offering theory-grounded guidance for algorithmic and modeling choices.
