• Abstract: The study of neural operators has paved the way for the development of efficient approaches for solving partial differential equations (PDEs) compared with traditional methods. However, most of the existing neural operators lack the capability to provide uncertainty measures for their predictions, a crucial aspect, especially in data-driven scenarios with limited available data. In this work, we propose a novel Neural Operator-induced Gaussian Process (NOGaP), which exploits the probabilistic characteristics of Gaussian Processes (GPs) while leveraging the learning prowess of operator learning. The proposed framework leads to improved prediction accuracy and offers a quantifiable measure of uncertainty. The proposed framework is extensively evaluated through experiments on various PDE examples, including Burger's equation, Darcy flow, non-homogeneous Poisson, and wave-advection equations. Furthermore, a comparative study with state-of-the-art operator learning algorithms is presented to highlight the advantages of NOGaP. The results demonstrate superior accuracy and expected uncertainty characteristics, suggesting the promising potential of the proposed framework.

  We introduce Neural Operator Variational Inference (NOVI) for Deep Gaussian Processes. NOVI uses a neural generator to obtain a sampler and minimizes the Regularized Stein Discrepancy in L2 space between the generated distribution and true posterior. We demonstrate that the bias introduced by our method can be controlled by multiplying the divergence with a constant, which leads to robust error control and ensures the stability and precision of the algorithm.
