TL;DR

Using the Implicit Function Theorem, first-order estimates are derived that characterize how ML prediction errors propagate and guide the choice of cycle parameters, independent of model architecture.

Abstract

Simulating the time evolution of practical mechanics problems requires many time steps. This cost is further compounded by the iterative nature of implicit solvers. We present a cycle-based Machine Learning-enabled Time-skipping (MLT) method. In each cycle, several time steps are skipped, a machine learning (ML) prediction bridges the gap to initialize one solver step, and the physics-based solver then runs for several steps to correct any accumulated errors. Using the Implicit Function Theorem, we derive first-order estimates that characterize how ML prediction errors propagate. These estimates identify when errors remain bounded across cycles and guide the choice of cycle parameters, independent of model architecture. We verify these estimates on the Allen-Cahn equation and a forced variant using controlled synthetic perturbations that emulate ML errors. Wall-clock measurements confirm the theoretical speedup is realizable in practice. The MLT method provides a robust framework for accelerating time-marching in dynamic simulations.

Physics is the Best Teacher: Consistency Learning for Time-Invariant Operators of Chaotic Dynamics

Accelerating the prediction of long-term behavior in chaotic systems is crucial in scientific computing. However, existing methods rely on numerical solvers or autoregressive models that advance one small step at a time, which makes long horizons expensive. We instead view this problem as learning the system's time-inv...

Learning Implicit Solves for Dynamic Simulations

High-fidelity simulation of dynamical systems is central to scientific discovery and engineering design, yet remains computationally demanding. Here we introduce the Implicit Neural Operator Solver (INOS), which learns the implicit solve and encodes a time integrator. INOS pretrains a neural operator from static equili...

Model reduction in time: Learning flow maps for reducing stochastic dynamical systems in time

Predictions with dynamical systems can be computationally expensive---even with reduced models---because reaching future prediction times can require many sequential time integration steps. We propose Flow-Map First-Order Trajectory Matching (FM-FTM), a nonintrusive model reduction approach that accelerates ensemble pr...

An early mistake in the generated reasoning can constrain all subsequent reasoning. Repeated-generation methods, like MCMC-based approaches, attempt to improve output quality by sampling multiple generations, but their effectiveness can be limited by randomly selecting where to regenerate.
