Abstract

This work embeds feature interaction modules derived from factorization machines (FMs) into physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) and neural operator learning, to enhance model expressiveness for solution manifolds of parameterized partial differential equations (PDEs). Motivated by the second-order Taylor expansion of multivariate functions to characterize variable couplings, we first propose FM-PINN. It explicitly captures spatio-temporal variable interactions and improves the approximation accuracy for smooth high-order PDEs. We further group spatial coordinates, time, physical parameters, and initial and boundary conditions into independent feature sets and model their cross-group interactions. Based on this strategy, we develop FM-Operator and FM-DeepONet, which are particularly effective for nonlinear conservation laws and problems with sharp gradients or discontinuities, while offering no consistent advantage on smooth operator learning benchmarks. Numerical tests demonstrate that the proposed mechanism delivers substantial accuracy gains on challenging shock-dominated equations, indicating a promising direction for physics-consistent modeling of parameterized PDEs with strong cross-field dependencies.

Physics-informed feature decomposition in residual dense block neural networks for incompressible viscous flow

The growing application of physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) for solving parametric partial differential equations (PDEs) in fluid dynamics has demonstrated their potential for modeling complex multiscale flows; however, conventional PINNs often exhibit spectral bias and slow, unstable convergence, limiting accuracy in boundary layers and wakes. This research presents novel physics-informed feature decomposition in residual dense block neural networks (PI-RDB-NN), which embeds physical constraints directly into the network architecture rather than relying solely on soft constraints. PI-RDB-NN uses hierarchical residual dense blocks for multi-scale feature extraction, allocates feature channels to velocity and pressure in a 2:1 ratio consistent with two-dimensional incompressible Navier–Stokes physics, and enforces mass conservation via a learnable divergence-aware projection applied at the feature level. The model is evaluated on National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) 0012 airfoil flow at Reynolds numbers (Re)=5000 and Re=1000 using a hybrid loss combining PDE residuals, boundary conditions, and sparse computational fluid dynamics (CFD) data. PI-RDB-NN reduces PDE residual and divergence error by 91.2% and 71.7% vs traditional PINNs (Re=5000) and by 85.5% and 85.4% vs a physics-informed Deep Operator Network (DeepONet) baseline (Re=1000). These physics consistency gains improve aerodynamic force predictions and CFD agreement, confirmed by velocity, wake, and pressure coefficient (Cp) distributions. Consistent accuracy across both Reynolds regimes supports the framework's generality, with three-dimensional and unsteady extensions identified as future work.
