Abstract
Enforcing prescribed global integral constraints in mesh-free neural PDE solvers is challenging in high-dimensional domains. Existing projection methods for spatial integrals are often tied to fixed grids or uniform quadrature, which can conflict with randomly sampled physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) and scale poorly with dimension. High-order differential operators also increase reverse-mode automatic differentiation memory costs. We propose Stochastic Dimension Implicit Functional Projection (SDIFP), a quadrature-level framework for enforcing prescribed first and second spatial moments. SDIFP replaces tensor-product nodal projection by a global affine correction of the neural-network output, with two scalar coefficients determined from a weighted quadrature rule. Under positive target variance and nonzero empirical raw variance, this correction is the nearest-point projection, in the weighted quadrature norm, onto the empirical two-moment constraint set. Thus, the prescribed moments are exact for the selected quadrature rule, while continuum errors are quadrature errors of the corrected field. For decomposable high-dimensional linear operators, SDIFP combines affine moment correction with stochastic operator-subset sampling. With independent residual and derivative sampling and conditionally unbiased coefficient-gradient estimation, the resulting estimator is unbiased for the specified quadrature-based residual objective; the shared-subset fast mode is biased in general. SDIFP avoids tensor-product quadrature for moment enforcement, separates forward quadrature evaluation from the reverse-mode graph, and retains pointwise inference efficiency once the affine coefficients are fixed or precomputed.

In this paper, we introduce INEUS, a meshfree iterative neural solver for partial integro-differential equations (PIDEs). The method replaces the explicit evaluation of nonlocal jump integrals with single-jump sampling and reformulates PIDE solving as a sequence of recursive regression problems. Like Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs), INEUS learns global solutions over the entire space-time domain, yet it offers a more efficient treatment of nonlocal terms and avoids the computationally expensive differentiation of full PIDE residuals. These features make INEUS particularly well suited for high-dimensional PDEs and PIDEs. Supported by a contraction-based convergence proof for linear PIDEs, our numerical experiments show that INEUS delivers accurate and scalable solutions for various high-dimensional linear and nonlinear examples.

Time-dependent high-dimensional partial differential equations (PDEs) with spatially localised and dynamically evolving solutions pose a fundamental challenge for physics-informed neural networks (PINNs), as uniform collocation sampling becomes increasingly ineffective in high-dimensional spatiotemporal domains. In this work, a deep adaptive sampling framework for PINNs is extended to the time-dependent setting by treating space and time as a unified domain without any explicit time marching. A normalising flow neural network model effectively learns the distribution induced by the PDE residual and generates new collocation points concentrated in regions where the solution is most difficult to learn. Unlike conventional adaptive strategies that require explicit time stepping or moving meshes, high-residual regions are automatically identified and tracked across both space and time, driven purely by the PDE residual distribution. The effectiveness of the proposed strategy is assessed on a range of benchmark problems, from sharp and moving features in two spatial dimensions to localised structures in up to eight spatial dimensions.

Machine learning-based partial differential equations (PDEs) solvers have attracted significant attention in recent years. Most progress in this area has been driven by deep neural networks such as physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) and kernel method (such as physics-informed Gaussian Processes). We introduce a physics-informed random feature method for countering part of the spectral bias which PINN-based solvers are facing for a certain class of PDEs. Random feature method was originally proposed to approximate large-scale kernel machines and can be viewed as a specialized randomized neural network. Compared to other state-of-the-art PINN-based solvers which require a large number of collocation points, our proposed method reduces the computational complexity. In this paper, we develop a rigorous approximation error analysis and derive high-probability error bounds on the
H1 norm. We provide extensive numerical tests for verifying our theoretical guarantees on error decay rates, as well as several comparison tests to showcase our claimed capability for combating spectral bias in these deep learning based methods.
