ICML F4LCD Contributed Talk: Modeling Accurate Long Rollouts with Neural PDE Solvers

Abstract

In this contributed talk, I presented our recent study on the challenges of accurate long rollouts in PDE solving when applying neural surrogates. We identify common neural operators to neglect spatial frequency information with low amplitude, which has low short-term, but high long-term impacts. To overcome these challenges, we propose PDE-Refiner. PDE-Refiner models an iterative refinement process to accurately predict the solution across the whole spatial frequency spectrum.
