• Abstract summary: PINNs are Neural Network architectures trained to emulate solutions of differential equations without the necessity of solution data. We perform an empirical analysis of the behavior of PINN predictions outside their training domain. We assess whether the algorithmic setup of PINNs can influence their potential for generalization and showcase the respective effect on the prediction.

• Abstract: Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) are Neural Network architectures trained to emulate solutions of differential equations without the necessity of solution data. They are currently ubiquitous in the scientific literature due to their flexible and promising settings. However, very little of the available research provides practical studies that aim for a better quantitative understanding of such architecture and its functioning. In this paper, we perform an empirical analysis of the behavior of PINN predictions outside their training domain. The primary goal is to investigate the scenarios in which a PINN can provide consistent predictions outside the training area. Thereinafter, we assess whether the algorithmic setup of PINNs can influence their potential for generalization and showcase the respective effect on the prediction. The results obtained in this study returns insightful and at times counterintuitive perspectives which can be highly relevant for architectures which combines PINNs with domain decomposition and/or adaptive training strategies.
