Title: Structure-Preserving Machine Learning Moment Closure Models for the Radiative Transfer Equation 

Abstract: In this talk, we present our work on structure-preserving machine learning (ML) moment closure models for the radiative transfer equation. Most of the existing ML closure models are not able to guarantee the stability, which directly causes blow up in the long-time simulations. In our work, with carefully designed neural network architectures, the ML closure model can guarantee the stability (or hyperbolicity). Moreover, some other mathematical properties, such as physical characteristic speeds, are also discussed. Extensive benchmark tests show the good accuracy, long-time stability, and good generalizability of our ML closure model.
