Methods & Key Findings
This research develops novel PINN architectures to simulate complex processes, including species spread, damped oscillations, and disease dynamics, by integrating differential equations with neural networks. The project emphasizes model interpretability and physical consistency, yielding promising results for equations such as the SEIR model and the Fisher and Lotka-Volterra systems.
