Published: September 2021

We present a novel weak formulation and discretization for discovering governing equations from noisy measurement data. This method of learning differential equations from data fits into a new class of algorithms that replace pointwise derivative approximations with linear transformations and variance reduction techniques. Compared to the standard SINDy algorithm presented in [S. L. Brunton, J. L. Proctor, and J. N. Kutz, , 113 (2016), pp. 3932-3937], our so-called weak SINDy (WSINDy) algorithm allows for reliable model identification from data with large noise (often with ratios greater than 0.1) and reduces the error in the recovered coefficients to enable accurate prediction. Moreover, the coefficient error scales linearly with the noise level, leading to high-accuracy recovery in the low-noise regime. Altogether, WSINDy combines the simplicity and efficiency of the SINDy algorithm with the natural noise reduction of integration, as demonstrated in [H. Schaeffer and S. G. McCalla, , 96 (2017), 023302], to arrive at a robust and accurate method of sparse recovery.

Article Synopsis
  • A new framework uses symbolic regression through genetic programming to find complex partial differential equations (PDEs) from limited and noisy data.
  • It successfully identified accurate models for four synthetic systems, even when data was scarce, outperforming a competing method called weak Sparse Identification of Nonlinear Dynamics (SINDy).
  • The framework proved robust, recovering models from just eight time-series data points in noisy conditions, highlighting its potential for discovering PDEs in challenging data collection scenarios.

WEAK SINDY FOR PARTIAL DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS.

Sparse Identification of Nonlinear Dynamics (SINDy) is a method of system discovery that has been shown to successfully recover governing dynamical systems from data [6, 39]. Recently, several groups have independently discovered that the weak formulation provides orders of magnitude better robustness to noise. Here we extend our Weak SINDy (WSINDy) framework introduced in [28] to the setting of partial differential equations (PDEs).
