The subject systems are observed by collecting input-output pairs of system responses under excitations drawn from a Gaussian process. Two methods are proposed to learn the Green's function. In the first method, we use the proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) modes of the system as a surrogate for the eigenvectors of the Green's function, and subsequently fit the eigenvalues, using data. In the second, we employ a generalization of the randomized singular value decomposition (SVD) to operators, in order to construct a low-rank approximation to the Green's function. Then, we propose a manifold interpolation scheme, for use in an offline-online setting, where offline excitation-response data, taken at specific model parameter instances, are compressed into empirical eigenmodes. These eigenmodes are subsequently used within a manifold interpolation scheme, to uncover other suitable eigenmodes at unseen model parameters. The approximation and interpolation numerical techniques are demonstrated on several examples in one and two dimensions.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2211.06299v2","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2211.06299v2.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"principled-interpolation-of-green-s-functions","repo_url":"https://github.com/hsharsh/empiricalgreensfunctions","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
