  1. Machine-learning (ML) based discretization has been developed to simulate complex partial differential equations (PDEs) with tremendous success across various fields. These learned PDE solvers can effectively resolve the underlying solution structures of interest and achieve a level of accuracy which often requires an order-of-magnitude finer grid for a conventional numerical method using polynomial-based approximations. In a previous work [13], we introduced a learned finite volume discretization that further incorporates the semi-Lagrangian (SL) mechanism, enabling larger CFL numbers for stability. However, the efficiency and effectiveness of such a methodology heavily rely on the availability of abundant high-resolution training data, which can be prohibitively expensive to obtain. To address this challenge, in this paper, we propose a novel multifidelity MLbased SL method for transport equations. This method leverages a combination of a small amount of high-fidelity data and sufficient but cheaper low-fidelity data. The approach is designed based on a composite convolutional neural network architecture that explores the inherent correlation between high-fidelity and low-fidelity data. The proposed method demonstrates the capability to achieve a reasonable level of accuracy, particularly in scenarios where a single-fidelity model fails to generalize effectively. We further extend the method to the nonlinear Vlasov--Poisson system by employing high-order Runge--Kutta exponential integrators. A collection of numerical tests are provided to validate the efficiency and accuracy of the proposed method.

  2. In recent years, magnetic particle imaging (MPI) has emerged as a promising imaging technique depicting high sensitivity and spatial resolution. It originated in the early 2000s where it proposed a new approach to challenge the low spatial resolution achieved by using relaxometry in order to measure the magnetic fields. MPI presents 2D and 3D images with high temporal resolution, non‐ionizing radiation, and optimal visual contrast due to its lack of background tissue signal. Traditionally, the images were reconstructed by the conversion of signal from the induced voltage by generating system matrix and X‐space based methods. Because image reconstruction and analyses play an integral role in obtaining precise information from MPI signals, newer artificial intelligence‐based methods are continuously being researched and developed upon. In this work, we summarize and review the significance and employment of machine learning and deep learning models for applications with MPI and the potential they hold for the future.

  3. Abstract In this paper, we propose a novel Local Macroscopic Conservative (LoMaC) low rank tensor method for simulating the Vlasov-Poisson (VP) system. The LoMaC property refers to the exact local conservation of macroscopic mass, momentum and energy at the discrete level. This is a follow-up work of our previous development of a conservative low rank tensor approach for Vlasov dynamics (arXiv:2201.10397). In that work, we applied a low rank tensor method with a conservative singular value decomposition to the high dimensional VP system to mitigate the curse of dimensionality, while maintaining the local conservation of mass and momentum. However, energy conservation is not guaranteed, which is a critical property to avoid unphysical plasma self-heating or cooling. The new ingredient in the LoMaC low rank tensor algorithm is that we simultaneously evolve the macroscopic conservation laws of mass, momentum and energy using a flux-difference form with kinetic flux vector splitting; then the LoMaC property is realized by projecting the low rank kinetic solution onto a subspace that shares the same macroscopic observables by a conservative orthogonal projection. The algorithm is extended to the high dimensional problems by hierarchical Tuck decomposition of solution tensors and a corresponding conservative projection algorithm. Extensive numerical tests on the VP system are showcased for the algorithm’s efficacy.

  4. In the past decade, topological data analysis has emerged as a powerful algebraic topology approach in data science. Although knot theory and related subjects are a focus of study in mathematics, their success in practical applications is quite limited due to the lack of localization and quantization. We address these challenges by introducing knot data analysis (KDA), a paradigm that incorporates curve segmentation and multiscale analysis into the Gauss link integral. The resulting multiscale Gauss link integral (mGLI) recovers the global topological properties of knots and links at an appropriate scale and offers a multiscale geometric topology approach to capture the local structures and connectivities in data. By integration with machine learning or deep learning, the proposed mGLI significantly outperforms other state-of-the-art methods across various benchmark problems in 13 intricately complex biological datasets, including protein flexibility analysis, protein–ligand interactions, human Ether-à-go-go-Related Gene potassium channel blockade screening, and quantitative toxicity assessment. Our KDA opens a research area—knot deep learning—in data science.
