• Authors: Aaron B. Buhendwa, Deniz A. Bezgin, Nikolaus Adams
• Abstract summary: We focus on interface reconstruction (IR) in the level-set method, i.e. the computation of the volume fraction and apertures. The proposed approach improves accuracy for coarsely resolved interfaces and recovers the conventional IR for high resolutions. We provide details of floating point symmetric implementation and computational efficiency.

• Abstract: Recently, machine learning has been used to substitute parts of conventional computational fluid dynamics, e.g. the cell-face reconstruction in finite-volume solvers or the curvature computation in the Volume-of-Fluid (VOF) method. The latter showed improvements in terms of accuracy for coarsely resolved interfaces, however at the expense of convergence and symmetry. In this work, a combined approach is proposed, adressing the aforementioned shortcomings. We focus on interface reconstruction (IR) in the level-set method, i.e. the computation of the volume fraction and apertures. The combined model consists of a classification neural network, that chooses between the conventional (linear) IR and the neural network IR depending on the local interface resolution. The proposed approach improves accuracy for coarsely resolved interfaces and recovers the conventional IR for high resolutions, yielding first order overall convergence. Symmetry is preserved by mirroring and rotating the input level-set grid and subsequently averaging the predictions. The combined model is implemented into a CFD solver and demonstrated for two-phase flows. Furthermore, we provide details of floating point symmetric implementation and computational efficiency.

  This paper presents a theoretical analysis of linearahead as a principled method for stabilizing (large-scale) neural network training.

  We focus on Federated learning (FL) via edge-the-air computation (AirComp) We describe the convergence of AirComp-based FedAvg (AirFedAvg) algorithms under both convex and non- convex settings. For different types of local updates that can be transmitted by edge devices (i.e., model, gradient, model difference), we reveal that transmitting in AirFedAvg may cause an aggregation error. In addition, we consider more practical signal processing schemes to improve the communication efficiency and extend the convergence analysis to different forms of model aggregation error caused by these signal processing schemes.
