The lowest-order Neural Approximated Virtual Element Method on polygonal elements
Résumé
The lowest-order Neural Approximated Virtual Element Method on polygonal elements is proposed here. This method employs a neural network to locally approximate the Virtual Element basis functions, thereby eliminating issues concerning stabilization and projection operators, which are the key components of the standard Virtual Element Method. We propose different training strategies for the neural network training, each correlated by the theoretical justification and with a different level of accuracy. Several numerical experiments are proposed to validate our procedure on general polygonal meshes and demonstrate the advantages of the proposed method across different problem formulations, particularly in cases where the heavy usage of projection and stabilization terms may represent challenges for the standard version of the method. Particular attention is reserved to triangular meshes with hanging nodes which assume a central role in many virtual element applications.
