If you have a question about this talk, please contact Hong Duong. In this talk we will discuss several challenges that arise when solving PDEs with deep learning-based solvers. We will begin with defining the loss function of a general PDE and discuss how this choice of loss function, and specifically the weighting of the different loss terms, can impact the accuracy of the solution. We will show how to choose an optimal weighting that corresponds to accurate solutions. Next, we will focus on the approximation of the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman partial differential equation associated to optimal stabilization of the NonLinear Quadratic Regular Problem. It is not obvious that the neural network will converge to the correct solution with just any type of initialisation; this is particularly relevant when the solution to the HJB -PDE is non-unique. We will discuss a two-step learning approach where the model is pre-trained on a dataset obtained from solving a state-dependent Riccati equation and we show that in this way efficient and accurate convergence can still be obtained.
