New methods combine Monte Carlo and neural networks for solving boundary value problems

This paper explores novel methods for approximating solutions to Poisson's equation, a fundamental problem in mathematical physics. Researchers demonstrate that Monte Carlo methods, particularly an accelerated walk on spheres algorithm, can efficiently provide numerical approximations for the equation's solutions. Furthermore, the study shows how these Monte Carlo solvers can be used to construct deep neural networks (DNNs) that also approximate the solutions, with the size of these networks depending polynomially on the problem's dimension and desired accuracy.

    From Monte Carlo to neural networks approximations of boundary value problems

    arXiv:2209.01432v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In this paper we study probabilistic and neural network approximations for solutions to Poisson equation subject to Holder data in general bounded domains of $\mathbb{R}^d$. We aim at two fundamental goals. The first, and …
