Kalidindi"],"abstract":"The bulk of computational approaches for modeling physical systems in materials science derive from either analytical (i.e. physics based) or data-driven (i.e. machine-learning based) origins. In order to combine the strengths of these two approaches, we advance a novel machine learning approach for solving equations of the generalized Lippmann-Schwinger (L-S) type. In this paradigm, a given problem is converted into an equivalent L-S equation and solved as an optimization problem, where the optimization procedure is calibrated to the problem at hand. As part of a learning-based loop unrolling, we use a recurrent convolutional neural network to iteratively solve the governing equations for a field of interest. This architecture leverages the generalizability and computational efficiency of machine learning approaches, but also permits a physics-based interpretation. We demonstrate our learning approach on the two-phase elastic localization problem, where it achieves excellent accuracy on the predictions of the local (i.e., voxel-level) elastic strains. Since numerous governing equations can be converted into an equivalent L-S form, the proposed architecture has potential applications across a range of multiscale materials phenomena.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2102.00063v2","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2102.00063v2.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":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"recurrent-localization-networks-applied-to","repo_url":"https://github.com/conlain-k/RLN_elasticity","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"pytorch","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"machine-learning","task_name":"BIG-bench Machine Learning"},{"task_slug":"computational-efficiency","task_name":"Computational Efficiency"},{"task_slug":"unrolling","task_name":"Rolling Shutter Correction"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
