Abstract: In this presentation, we present a hybrid finite difference numerical method for hyperbolic conservation laws with a neural network based shock detector. One- and two-dimensional numerical examples on scalar and Euler equations are provided to demonstrate the performance of the proposed method. Comparison with the classical shock detector has also been studied, which illustrates that the neural-network based detector is able to provide a clean signal without a problem-dependent parameter. This is a joint work with Shuyi Wang, Zheng Sun, Lo-bin Chang and Dongbin Xiu (OSU).
