Physics-Based Deep Learning

The following collection of materials targets "Physics-Based Deep Learning" (PBDL), i.e., the field of methods with combinations of physical modeling and deep learning (DL) techniques. Here, DL will typically refer to methods based on artificial neural networks. The general direction of PBDL represents a very active and quickly growing field of research.

If you're interested in a comprehensive overview, please check our digital PBDL book: https://www.physicsbaseddeeplearning.org/ (or as PDF: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2109.05237.pdf)

Within this area, we can distinguish a variety of different physics-based approaches, from targeting designs, constraints, combined methods, and optimizations to applications. More specifically, all approaches either target forward simulations (predicting state or temporal evolution) or inverse problems (e.g., obtaining a parametrization for a physical system from observations). Apart from forward or inverse, the type of integration between learning and physics gives a means for categorizing different methods:

• Data-driven: the data is produced by a physical system (real or simulated), but no further interaction exists.

• Loss-terms: the physical dynamics (or parts thereof) are encoded in the loss function, typically in the form of differentiable operations. The learning process can repeatedly evaluate the loss, and usually receives gradients from a PDE-based formulation.

• Interleaved: the full physical simulation is interleaved and combined with an output from a deep neural network; this requires a fully differentiable simulator and represents the tightest coupling between the physical system and the learning process. Interleaved approaches are especially important for temporal evolutions, where they can yield an estimate of future behavior of the dynamics.

Thus, methods can be roughly categorized in terms of forward versus inverse solve, and how tightly the physical model is integrated into the optimization loop that trains the deep neural network. Here, especially approaches that leverage differentiable physics allow for very tight integration of deep learning and numerical simulations.

This repository collects links to works on deep learning algorithms for physics problems, with a particular emphasis on fluid flow, i.e., Navier-Stokes related problems. It primarily collects links to the work of the I15 lab at TUM, as well as miscellaneous works from other groups. This is by no means a complete list, so let us know if you come across additional papers in this area. We intentionally also focus on works from the deep learning field, not machine learning in general.
