Meshfree Variational-Physics-Informed Neural Networks (MF-VPINN): An Adaptive Training Strategy by Stefano Berrone, Moreno Pintore

“…It is a Variational-Physics-Informed Neural Network that does not require the generation of the triangulation of the entire domain and that can be trained with an adaptive set of test functions. In order to generate the test space, we exploit an a posteriori error indicator and add test functions only where the error is higher. …”
