TL;DR
The paper tackles the challenge of solving complex differential-algebraic equations (DAEs), including fractional, integro-differential, and partial forms, by developing a collocation-weighted residual LS-SVR framework with a Legendre orthogonal kernel. Solutions are expressed as a Legendre-basis expansion and solved via a dual quadratic programming problem, yielding exponential convergence and a symmetric positive definite system. The method is validated across multiple DAE classes with high accuracy and is shown to offer regularization benefits and scalability relative to existing approaches. These results suggest a practical, kernel-based ML approach for robustly solving diverse DAEs with potential extensions to other polynomial kernels and problem types.
Abstract
The recent introduction of the Least-Squares Support Vector Regression (LS-SVR) algorithm for solving differential and integral equations has sparked interest. In this study, we expand the application of this algorithm to address systems of differential-algebraic equations (DAEs). Our work presents a novel approach to solving general DAEs in an operator format by establishing connections between the LS-SVR machine learning model, weighted residual methods, and Legendre orthogonal polynomials. To assess the effectiveness of our proposed method, we conduct simulations involving various DAE scenarios, such as nonlinear systems, fractional-order derivatives, integro-differential, and partial DAEs. Finally, we carry out comparisons between our proposed method and currently established state-of-the-art approaches, demonstrating its reliability and effectiveness.
