• Abstract: Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) are a powerful deep learning method capable of providing solutions and parameter estimations of physical systems. Given the complexity of their neural network structure, the convergence speed is still limited compared to numerical methods, mainly when used in applications that model realistic systems. The network initialization follows a random distribution of the initial weights, as in the case of traditional neural networks, which could lead to severe model convergence bottlenecks. To overcome this problem, we follow current studies that deal with optimal initial weights in traditional neural networks. In this paper, we use a convex optimization model to improve the initialization of the weights in PINNs and accelerate convergence. We investigate two optimization models as a first training step, defined as pre-training, one involving only the boundaries and one including physics. The optimization is focused on the first layer of the neural network part of the PINN model, while the other weights are randomly initialized. We test the methods using a practical application of the heat diffusion equation to model the temperature distribution of power transformers. The PINN model with boundary pre-training is the fastest converging method at the current stage.

  The representation of a quantum wave function as a neural network quantum state (NQS) provides a powerful variational ansatz for finding the ground states of many-body quantum systems. We introduce an approach that bypasses the computation of the metric tensor and instead relies exclusively on first-order descent with Euclidean metric. We make this method adaptive and stable by determining the optimal time step and keeping the target fixed until the energy of the NQS decreases.

Remarkably, given some plausible scaling assumptions on the NTK spectra and spectral decomposition of the labels -- learning is optimal in a scaling sense.

  Many NN approaches learn an end-to-end model that implicitly models both the governing PDE and material models. We argue that the governing PDEs are often well-known and should be explicitly enforced rather than learned. We introduce a new framework termed "Neural Constitutive Laws" (NCLaw) which utilizes a network architecture that strictly guarantees standard priors.

In particular, we parameterize the PDE solution by the Gaussian smoothed model and show that, derived from Stein's Identity, the second-order derivatives can be efficiently calculated without back-propagation. Experimental results show that our proposed method can achieve competitive error compared to standard PINN training but is two orders of magnitude faster.
