讲座主题：PDEs Meet Machine Learning
讲座摘要: Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) have long been at the core of mathematical modeling across the physical, biological, and engineering sciences, motivating key advances in analysis, numerical simulation, and applied mathematics. The recent explosion of Machine Learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) presents transformative opportunities—but also significant challenges—for traditional PDE-based methodologies.
In this lecture, we adopt an interdisciplinary viewpoint at the intersection of PDE theory, control, and machine learning. We begin by revisiting the historical foundations of cybernetics—from Ampère to Wiener—driven by the longstanding vision of designing intelligent systems. Building on this perspective, we explore recent progress in addressing some of the most compelling questions in the field:
• Why does ML generalize so effectively?
• How can data-driven models be rigorously integrated into the analytical and numerical framework of PDEs?
• In what ways can PDE theory contribute to explaining the remarkable performance of generative AI?
