• Abstract: We study learning weak solutions to nonlinear hyperbolic partial differential equations (H-PDE), which have been difficult to learn due to discontinuities in their solutions. We use a physics-informed variant of the Fourier Neural Operator ($\pi$-FNO) to learn the weak solutions. We empirically quantify the generalization/out-of-sample error of the $\pi$-FNO solver as a function of input complexity, i.e., the distributions of initial and boundary conditions. Our testing results show that $\pi$-FNO generalizes well to unseen initial and boundary conditions. We find that the generalization error grows linearly with input complexity. Further, adding a physics-informed regularizer improved the prediction of discontinuities in the solution. We use the Lighthill-Witham-Richards (LWR) traffic flow model as a guiding example to illustrate the results.

We use a state-of-the-art SR package to demonstrate how an exact solution can be found and make an attempt at solving an unsolved physics problem.

  We develop a physics-informed neural network (PINN) model for parabolic problems with a sharply perturbed initial condition. Localized large gradients in the ADE solution make the (common in PINN) Latin hypercube sampling of the equation's residual highly inefficient. We propose criteria for weights in the loss function that produce a more accurate PINN solution than those obtained with the weights selected via other methods.
