• Abstract: In recent years, machine learning methods have been widely used to study physical systems that are challenging to solve with governing equations. Physicists and engineers are framing the data-driven paradigm as an alternative approach to physical sciences. In this paradigm change, the deep learning approach is playing a pivotal role. However, most learning architectures do not inherently incorporate conservation laws in the form of continuity equations, and they require dense data to learn the dynamics of conserved quantities. In this study, we introduce a clever mathematical transform to represent the classical dynamics as a point-wise process of disappearance and reappearance of a quantity, which dramatically reduces model complexity and training data for machine learning of transport phenomena. We demonstrate that just a few observational data and a simple learning model can be enough to learn the dynamics of real-world objects. The approach does not require the explicit use of governing equations and only depends on observation data. Because the continuity equation is a general equation that any conserved quantity should obey, the applicability may range from physical to social and medical sciences or any field where data are conserved quantities.

  We propose a framework that combines Symbolic Regression (SR) and Discrete Exterior Calculus (DEC) for the automated discovery of physical models. DEC provides building blocks for the discrete analogue of field theories, which are beyond the state-of-the-art applications of SR to physical problems. We prove the effectiveness of our methodology by re-discovering three models of Continuum Physics from synthetic experimental data.

We validate our method on several challenging simulated tasks and demonstrate that it improves learning both alone and when combined with an existing hindsight algorithm.
