Machine Learning with Graphs (Master Seminar)

Lecturers: Prof. Dr. Leon Bungert, Dr. Eloi Martinet

In this seminar we will discover machine learning methods that involve graphs. This includes partial differential equations on graphs and their use for semi-supervised machine learning, as well as graph neural networks for supervised learning with graph data. The seminar will cover theoretical and numerical aspects and can lead to a master's thesis in this topic.

Numerical Mathematics and Applied Analysis (Working Group, 4h)

Lecturer: Dr. Eloi Martinet

In the vast majority of theoretical and real-world applications, the solution to a partial differential equation can not be computed analytically. The aim of this course is to explore two methods allowing to compute approximate solutions. The first, ”traditional” one, is the Finite Element Method. The second one makes use of the recent developments in Deep Learning leading to the so called ”Physics Informed Neural Networks”. In a first part, we will study the fundamental tools needed to solves elliptic partial differential equations, such as weak derivatives and Sobolev spaces. We will show how to approximate PDEs using basic finite elements tools. In the second part, we present the definition of au Neural Network and derive the proof of the so-called "Universal Approximation Theorem". Using backpropagation, we show how a network can be trained to solve some partial differential equations.
