Moment Estimate and Variational Approach for Learning Generalized Diffusion with Non-gradient Structures

Fanze Kong, Chen-Chih Lai, Yubin Lu

This paper proposes a data-driven learning framework for identifying governing laws of generalized diffusions with non-gradient components. By combining energy dissipation laws with a physically consistent penalty and first-moment evolution, we design a two-stage method to recover the pseudo-potential and rotation in the pointwise orthogonal decomposition of a class of non-gradient drifts in generalized diffusions. Our two-stage method is applied to complex generalized diffusion processes including dissipation-rotation dynamics, rough pseudo-potentials and noisy data. Representative numerical experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach for learning physical laws in non-gradient generalized diffusions.

Moment Estimates and DeepRitz Methods on Learning Diffusion Systems with Non-gradient Drifts

Fanze Kong, Chen-Chih Lai, Yubin Lu

Conservative-dissipative dynamics are ubiquitous across a variety of complex open systems. We propose a data-driven two-phase method, the Moment-DeepRitz Method, for learning drift decompositions in generalized diffusion systems involving conservative-dissipative dynamics. The method is robust to noisy data, adaptable to rough potentials and oscillatory rotations. We demonstrate its effectiveness through several numerical experiments.
