TL;DR

This study systematically compares PINNs preprocessing methods, with particular focus on three universal approaches (the non-dimensionalization, inner normalization layers, and synergistic normalization method for data and equation), and provides a practical reference for selecting preprocessing methods in different physical scenarios.

A Systematic Analysis of Automatic Differentiation versus Discretization-based Constraints for Physics-Informed PDE Solvers

As nonlinearity strengthens, the accuracy advantage of discretization-based constraints becomes increasingly pronounced, with smaller optimization errors compensating for the truncation errors, and the more complex the nonlinearity and boundary conditions, the greater the advantage of GNN over MLP.
