Model Order Reduction

Model order reduction (MOR) aims to create simplified, computationally efficient representations of complex systems, such as those described by high-dimensional partial differential equations or large-scale circuits. Current research emphasizes data-driven approaches, employing neural networks (including autoencoders, graph neural networks, and DeepONets) and techniques like Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD) and kernel principal component analysis (KPCA) to learn low-dimensional representations that capture essential system dynamics. These advancements enable faster simulations, improved control design for high-dimensional systems (e.g., soft robots, aircraft), and efficient solutions to inverse problems, impacting fields ranging from computational fluid dynamics to microelectronics.
