More competent learning models are demanded for data processing due to increasingly greater amounts of data available in applications. Data that we encounter often have certain embedded sparsity structures. That is, if they are represented in an appropriate basis, their energies can concentrate on a small number of basis functions. This paper is devoted to a numerical study of adaptive approximation of solutions of nonlinear partial differential equations whose solutions may have singularities, by deep neural networks (DNNs) with a sparse regularization with multiple parameters. Noting that DNNs have an intrinsic multi-scale structure which is favorable for adaptive representation of functions, by employing a penalty with multiple parameters, we develop DNNs with a multi-scale sparse regularization (SDNN) for effectively representing functions having certain singularities. We then apply the proposed SDNN to numerical solutions of the Burgers equation and the Schrödinger equation. Numerical examples confirm that solutions generated by the proposed SDNN are sparse and accurate.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
