论文摘要
储层计算是预测湍流的有力工具，其简单的架构具有处理大型系统的计算效率。然而，其实现通常需要完整的状态向量测量和系统非线性知识。我们使用非线性投影函数将系统测量扩展到高维空间，然后将其输入到储层中以获得预测。我们展示了这种储层计算网络在时空混沌系统上的应用，该系统模拟了湍流的若干特征。我们表明，使用径向基函数作为非线性投影器，即使只有部分观测并且不知道控制方程，也能稳健地捕捉复杂的系统非线性。最后，我们表明，当测量稀疏、不完整且带有噪声，甚至控制方程变得不准确时，我们的网络仍然可以产生相当准确的预测，从而为实际湍流系统的无模型预测铺平了道路。
A horizontal $N$-dimensional plane, having a diffusion of its own, exchanges with the lower half space. There, a reaction-diffusion process, modelled by a free boundary problem, takes place. We wish to understand whether, and how, the free boundary meets the plane. The origin of this problem is a two-dimensional reaction diffusion model proposed some time ago by the second author, in collaboration with H. Berestycki and L. Rossi, to model how biological invasions can be enhanced by a line of fast diffusion. Some counter-intuitive numerical simulations of this model, due to A.-C. Coulon, have been explained by the first two authors by transforming the model into a free boundary interacting with a line, and a careful study of the free boundary. At this occasion, it was noticed that the free boundary very much like that of the obstacle problem. The goal of the paper is to explain how this analogy with the obstacle problem can be pushed further in higher space dimensions.
