Learning When to Refine: Long-Horizon Reinforcement Learning for Budgeted Neural-Operator PDE Solvers

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2610.06883v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Neural operators provide fast surrogates for time-dependent PDEs, but autoregressive deployment creates a refinement-allocation problem: prediction errors vary over space and time, while only a finite number of local corrections can be committed along a trajectory. We formulate this as budgeted adaptive neural-operator solving. A global Fourier neural operator advances the full field, a local operator proposes patch-wise residual corrections, and a set-aware selector chooses where to refine. A macro policy decides when and how much of the remaining refinement budget to spend. We introduce rollout-verified policy improvement (RV-PI), which evaluates feasible refinement counts through actual continuation rollouts of the learned PDE solver, co
