DGM: A deep learning algorithm for solving partial differential equations
Open accessAbstract
High-dimensional PDEs have been a longstanding computational challenge. We propose a deep learning algorithm similar in spirit to Galerkin methods, using a deep neural network instead of linear combinations of basis functions. The PDE is approximated with a deep neural network, which is trained on random batches of spatial points to satisfy the differential operator and boundary conditions. The algorithm is mesh-less, which is key since meshes become infeasible in higher dimensions. Instead of forming a mesh, sequences of spatial points are randomly sampled. We implement the approach for American options (a type of free-boundary PDE which is widely used in finance) in up to 100 dimensions. We call the algorithm a "Deep Galerkin Method (DGM)".

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
