💻 So, what is a physics-informed neural network?
The idea is very simple: add the known differential equations directly into the loss function when training the neural network.
This is done by sampling a set of input training locations () and passing them through the network. Next gradients of the network’s output with respect to its input are computed at these locations (which are typically analytically available for most neural networks, and can be easily computed using autodifferentiation). Finally, the residual of the underlying differential equation is computed using these gradients, and added as an extra term in the loss function.
🧠 What are the differences between neural networks and the brain?
