Physical Systems Modeled Without Physical Laws
share
Physics-based simulations typically operate with a combination of complex differentiable equations and many scientific and geometric inputs. Our work involves gathering data from those simulations and seeing how well tree-based machine learning methods can emulate desired outputs without "knowing" the complex backing involved in the simulations. The selected physics-based simulations included Navier-Stokes, stress analysis, and electromagnetic field lines to benchmark performance as numerical and statistical algorithms. We specifically focus on predicting specific spatial-temporal data between two simulation outputs and increasing spatial resolution to generalize the physics predictions to finer test grids without the computational costs of repeating the numerical calculation.
