Abstract:Simulation and modeling are essential in product development, integrated into the design and manufacturing process to enhance efficiency and quality. They are typically represented as complex nonlinear differential algebraic equations. The growing diversity of product requirements demands multi-task optimization, a key challenge in simulation modeling research. A dual physics-informed neural network architecture has been proposed to decouple constraints and objective functions in parametric differential algebraic equation optimization problems. Theoretical analysis shows that introducing a relaxation variable with a global error bound ensures solution equivalence between the network and optimization problem. A genetic algorithm-enhanced training framework for physics-informed neural networks improves training precision and efficiency, avoiding redundant solving of differential algebraic equations. This approach enables generalization for multi-task objectives with a single, training maintaining real-time responsiveness to product requirements.
Abstract:Symbolic computation, powered by modern computer algebra systems, has important applications in mathematical reasoning through exact deep computations. The efficiency of symbolic computation is largely constrained by such deep computations in high dimension. This creates a fundamental barrier on labelled data acquisition if leveraging supervised deep learning to accelerate symbolic computation. Cylindrical algebraic decomposition (CAD) is a pillar symbolic computation method for reasoning with first-order logic formulas over reals with many applications in formal verification and automatic theorem proving. Variable orderings have a huge impact on its efficiency. Impeded by the difficulty to acquire abundant labelled data, existing learning-based approaches are only competitive with the best expert-based heuristics. In this work, we address this problem by designing a series of intimately connected tasks for which a large amount of annotated data can be easily obtained. We pre-train a Transformer model with these data and then fine-tune it on the datasets for CAD ordering. Experiments on publicly available CAD ordering datasets show that on average the orderings predicted by the new model are significantly better than those suggested by the best heuristic methods.
