  • The Method of Gauss-Newton to Compute Power Series Solutions of Polynomial Homotopies∗
    The Method of Gauss-Newton to Compute Power Series Solutions of Polynomial Homotopies∗ Nathan Bliss Jan Verschelde University of Illinois at Chicago Department of Mathematics, Statistics, and Computer Science 851 S. Morgan Street (m/c 249), Chicago, IL 60607-7045, USA fnbliss2,[email protected] Abstract We consider the extension of the method of Gauss-Newton from com- plex floating-point arithmetic to the field of truncated power series with complex floating-point coefficients. With linearization we formulate a lin- ear system where the coefficient matrix is a series with matrix coefficients, and provide a characterization for when the matrix series is regular based on the algebraic variety of an augmented system. The structure of the lin- ear system leads to a block triangular system. In the regular case, solving the linear system is equivalent to solving a Hermite interpolation problem. In general, we solve a Hermite-Laurent interpolation problem, via a lower triangular echelon form on the coefficient matrix. We show that this solu- tion has cost cubic in the problem size. With a few illustrative examples, we demonstrate the application to polynomial homotopy continuation. Key words and phrases. Linearization, Gauss-Newton, Hermite inter- polation, polynomial homotopy, power series. 1 Introduction 1.1 Preliminaries A polynomial homotopy is a family of polynomial systems which depend on one parameter. Numerical continuation methods to track solution paths defined by a homotopy are classical, see e.g.: [3] and [23]. Our goal is to improve the algorithms to track solution paths in two ways: ∗This material is based upon work supported by the National Science Foundation under Grant No.

  • Approximate Newton's Method for Tomographic Image Reconstruction
    Approximate Newton's method for Tomographic Image Reconstruction Yao Xie Reports for EE 391 Fall 2007 { 2008 December 14, 2007 Abstract In this report we solved a regularized maximum likelihood (ML) image reconstruction problem (with Poisson noise). We considered the gradient descent method, exact Newton's method, pre-conditioned conjugate gradient (CG) method, and an approximate Newton's method, with which we can solve a million variable problem. However, the current version of approximate Newton's method converges slow. We could possibly improve by ¯nding a better approximate to the Hessian matrix, and still easy to compute its inverse. 1 Introduction Deterministic Filtered backprojection (FBP) and regularized Maximum-Likelihood(ML) es- timation are two major approaches to transmission tomography image reconstruction, such as CT [KS88]. Though the latter method typically yields higher image quality, its practical application is yet limited by its high computational cost (0.02 second per image for FBP versus several hours per image for ML-based method). This study works towards solving large scale ML imaging problem. We consider several versions of the Newton's algorithm, including an approximate Newton's method. We tested our methods on one simulated example and one real data set. Our method works, but converges relatively slow. One possible remedy is to ¯nd a better approximation to the Hessian matrix. 2 Problem Formulation We consider a computed tomographic (CT) system. The object to be imaged is a square region, which we divide into an n £n array of square pixels. The pixels are indexded column 1 ¯rst, by a single index i ranging from 1 to n2.

  • Lecture 1: Introduction
    Lecture 1: Introduction E. J. Hinch Non-Newtonian fluids occur commonly in our world. These fluids, such as toothpaste, saliva, oils, mud and lava, exhibit a number of behaviors that are different from Newtonian fluids and have a number of additional material properties. In general, these differences arise because the fluid has a microstructure that influences the flow. In section 2, we will present a collection of some of the interesting phenomena arising from flow nonlinearities, the inhibition of stretching, elastic effects and normal stresses. In section 3 we will discuss a variety of devices for measuring material properties, a process known as rheometry. 1 Fluid Mechanical Preliminaries The equations of motion for an incompressible fluid of unit density are (for details and derivation see any text on fluid mechanics, e.g. [1]) @u + (u · r) u = r · S + F (1) @t r · u = 0 (2) where u is the velocity, S is the total stress tensor and F are the body forces. It is customary to divide the total stress into an isotropic part and a deviatoric part as in S = −pI + σ (3) where tr σ = 0. These equations are closed only if we can relate the deviatoric stress to the velocity field (the pressure field satisfies the incompressibility condition). It is common to look for local models where the stress depends only on the local gradients of the flow: σ = σ (E) where E is the rate of strain tensor 1 E = ru + ruT ; (4) 2 the symmetric part of the the velocity gradient tensor. The trace-free requirement on σ and the physical requirement of symmetry σ = σT means that there are only 5 independent components of the deviatoric stress: 3 shear stresses (the off-diagonal elements) and 2 normal stress differences (the diagonal elements constrained to sum to 0).

  • On the Use of Neural Networks to Solve Differential Equations Alberto García Molina
    Máster Universitario en Modelización e Investigación Matemática, Estadística y Computación 2019/2020 Trabajo Fin de Máster On the use of Neural Networks to solve Differential Equations Alberto García Molina Tutor/es Carlos Gorria Corres Lugar y fecha de presentación prevista 12 de Octubre del 2020 Abstract English. Artificial neural networks are parametric models, generally adjusted to solve regression and classification problem. For a long time, a question has laid around regarding the possibility of using these types of models to approximate the solutions of initial and boundary value problems, as a means for numerical integration. Recent improvements in deep-learning have made this approach much attainable, and integration methods based on training (fitting) artificial neural networks have begin to spring, motivated mostly by their mesh-free natureand scalability to high dimensions. In this work, we go all the way from the most basic elements, such as the definition of artificial neural networks and well-posedness of the problems, to solving several linear and quasi-linear PDEs using this approach. Throughout this work we explain general theory concerning artificial neural networks, including topics such as vanishing gradients, non-convex optimization or regularization, and we adapt them to better suite the initial and boundary value problems nature. Some of the original contributions in this work include: an analysis of the vanishing gradient problem with respect to the input derivatives, a custom regularization technique based on the network’s parameters derivatives, and a method to rescale the subgradients of the multi-objective of the loss function used to optimize the network.

  • A Fluid Is Defined As a Substance That Deforms Continuously Under Application of a Shearing Stress, Regardless of How Small the Stress Is
    FLUID MECHANICS & BIOTRIBOLOGY CHAPTER ONE FLUID STATICS & PROPERTIES Dr. ALI NASER Fluids Definition of fluid: A fluid is defined as a substance that deforms continuously under application of a shearing stress, regardless of how small the stress is. To study the behavior of materials that act as fluids, it is useful to define a number of important fluid properties, which include density, specific weight, specific gravity, and viscosity. Density is defined as the mass per unit volume of a substance and is denoted by the Greek character ρ (rho). The SI units for ρ are kg/m3. Specific weight is defined as the weight per unit volume of a substance. The SI units for specific weight are N/m3. Specific gravity S is the ratio of the weight of a liquid at a standard reference temperature to the o weight of water. For example, the specific gravity of mercury SHg = 13.6 at 20 C. Specific gravity is a unit-less parameter. Density and specific weight are measures of the “heaviness” of a fluid. Example: What is the specific gravity of human blood, if the density of blood is 1060 kg/m3? Solution: ⁄ ⁄ Viscosity, shearing stress and shearing strain Viscosity is a measure of a fluid's resistance to flow. It describes the internal friction of a moving fluid. A fluid with large viscosity resists motion because its molecular makeup gives it a lot of internal friction. A fluid with low viscosity flows easily because its molecular makeup results in very little friction when it is in motion. Gases also have viscosity, although it is a little harder to notice it in ordinary circumstances.

  • 7. Fluid Mechanics
    7. Fluid mechanics Introduction In this chapter we will study the mechanics of fluids. A non-viscous fluid, i.e. fluid with no inner friction is called an ideal fluid. The stress tensor for an ideal fluid is given by T1= −p , which is the most simplest form of the stress tensor used in fluid mechanics. A viscous material is a material for which the stress tensor depends on the rate of deformation D. If this relation is linear then we have linear viscous fluid or Newtonian fluid. The stress tensor for a linear viscous fluid is given by T = - p 1 + λ tr D 1 + 2μ D , where λ and μ are material constants. If we assume the fluid to be incompressible, i.e. tr D 1 = 0 and the stress tensor can be simplified to contain only one material coefficient μ . Most of the fluids can not be modelled by these two simple types of stress state assumption and they are called non-Newtonian fluids. There are different types of non-Newtonian fluids. We have constitutive models for fluids of differential, rate and integral types. Examples non-Newtonian fluids are Reiner-Rivlin fluids, Rivlin-Ericksen fluids and Maxwell fluids. In this chapter we will concentrate on ideal and Newtonian fluids and we will study some classical examples of hydrodynamics. 7.1 The general equations of motion for an ideal fluid For an arbitrary fluid (liquid or gas) the stress state can be describe by the following constitutive relation, T1= −p (7.1) where p= p (r ,t) is the fluid pressure and T is the stress.
