ABSTRACT

A method based on a neural network collocation method is proposed for approximating incompletely known dynamical systems via weak constraint data assimilation formulation. The aim of the new method is to solve several difficult issues encountered in previous research. For this purpose, the weak constraint property of the neural network collocation method is used. The problem regarding the wider assimilation window is tackled by interconnecting narrower windows with finite over...
