• Abstract: Many applications, especially in physics and other sciences, call for easily interpretable and robust machine learning techniques. We propose a fully gradient-based technique for training radial basis function networks with an efficient and scalable open-source implementation. We derive novel closed-form optimization criteria for pruning the models for continuous as well as binary data which arise in a challenging real-world material physics problem. The pruned models are optimized to provide compact and interpretable versions of larger models based on informed assumptions about the data distribution. Visualizations of the pruned models provide insight into the atomic configurations that determine atom-level migration processes in solid matter; these results may inform future research on designing more suitable descriptors for use with machine learning algorithms.

• Calibrating constitutive models with full-field data via physics informed neural networks [0.0]
  We propose a physics-informed deep-learning framework for the discovery of model parameterizations given full-field displacement data. We work with the weak form of the governing equations rather than the strong form to impose physical constraints upon the neural network predictions. We demonstrate that informed machine learning is an enabling technology and may shift the paradigm of how full-field experimental data is utilized to calibrate models.
