• Authors: Francesca Cairoli, Ginevra Carbone, Luca Bortolussi
• Abstract summary: A strategy to reduce computational load is to abstract the population model, replacing it with a simpler model, faster to simulate. Here we pursue this idea, building on previous works and constructing a generator capable of producing trajectories in continuous space and discrete time. This generator is learned automatically from simulations of the original model in a Generative Adversarial setting.

• Abstract: Markov Population Models are a widespread formalism used to model the dynamics of complex systems, with applications in Systems Biology and many other fields. The associated Markov stochastic process in continuous time is often analyzed by simulation, which can be costly for large or stiff systems, particularly when a massive number of simulations has to be performed (e.g. in a multi-scale model). A strategy to reduce computational load is to abstract the population model, replacing it with a simpler stochastic model, faster to simulate. Here we pursue this idea, building on previous works and constructing a generator capable of producing stochastic trajectories in continuous space and discrete time. This generator is learned automatically from simulations of the original model in a Generative Adversarial setting. Compared to previous works, which rely on deep neural networks and Dirichlet processes, we explore the use of state of the art generative models, which are flexible enough to learn a full trajectory rather than a single transition kernel.

  Closure models are widely used in simulating complex multiscale dynamical systems such as turbulence and the earth system. For systems without a clear scale, generalization deterministic and local closure models often lack enough capability. We propose a datadriven modeling framework for constructing neural operator and non-local closure models.

  In the study of physics-based multi-time-scale dynamical systems, techniques have been developed for enhancing sampling. In the field of Machine Learning, a generic goal of generative models is to sample from a target density, after training on empirical samples from this density. In this work, we show that that SGMs can be used in such a coupling framework to improve sampling in multiscale dynamical systems.

  We propose a new metamodeling concept, called generative metamodeling, which aims to construct a "fast simulator of the simulator" Once constructed, a generative metamodel can generate a large amount of random outputs as soon as the inputs are specified. We propose a new algorithm -- quantile-regression-based generative metamodeling (QRGMM) -- and study its convergence and rate of convergence.
