Résumés

Ali Hebbal. Geometry-Aware Deep Gaussian Process.
Learning solutions to physical problems governed by partial differential equations (PDEs) is a critical task in engineering, yet variability in the underlying geometry of the domain often complicates it. Traditional surrogate modeling techniques struggle when faced with nonparametrized geometrical changes, such as varying mesh structures, node counts, and topologies between samples. This presentation introduces the Geometry-Aware Deep Gaussian Process (GA-DGP), a novel architecture designed to address this challenge. The GA-DGP leverages Deep Gaussian Processes (DGPs) to create a hierarchical representation of the problem. We train the entire model end-to-end by maximizing an Evidence Lower Bound (ELBO). We demonstrate the effectiveness and competitiveness of our approach on a benchmark of different physics, showing that GA-DGP achieves state-of-the-art performance while retaining the uncertainty quantification benefits inherent to Bayesian methods.
