• Abstract summary: We build a V-Net based model that transforms fast linear predictions into fully nonlinear predictions from numerical simulations. Our NN model learns to emulate the simulations down to small scales and is both faster and more accurate than the current state-of-the-art approximate methods.

• Abstract: Cosmologists aim to model the evolution of initially low amplitude Gaussian density fluctuations into the highly non-linear "cosmic web" of galaxies and clusters. They aim to compare simulations of this structure formation process with observations of large-scale structure traced by galaxies and infer the properties of the dark energy and dark matter that make up 95% of the universe. These ensembles of simulations of billions of galaxies are computationally demanding, so that more efficient approaches to tracing the non-linear growth of structure are needed. We build a V-Net based model that transforms fast linear predictions into fully nonlinear predictions from numerical simulations. Our NN model learns to emulate the simulations down to small scales and is both faster and more accurate than the current state-of-the-art approximate methods. It also achieves comparable accuracy when tested on universes of significantly different cosmological parameters from the one used in training. This suggests that our model generalizes well beyond our training set.

Compared to traditional profile-fitting methods, we show that the uncertainties obtained using BNNs are comparable in magnitude, well-calibrated, and the point estimates of the parameters are closer to the true values.
