Sparse linear regression is used to discover the relevant terms of a partial differential equation of the distribution. The various properties of PDF equations, like smoothness and conservation, makes them very well adapted to equation learning methods. The results show a promising direction for data-driven discovery of coarse-grained equations in general.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-01-30T23:41:37.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "data-driven discovery", "coarse-grained equations", "sparse linear regression", "monte carlo simulations", "learning probability density function" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
