Harnessing Loss Decomposition for Long-Horizon Wave Predictions via Deep Neural Networks

Indu Kant Deo · Rajeev Jaiman


Abstract:

Accurate prediction over long time horizons is crucial for modeling complex physical processes such as wave propagation. Although deep neural networks show promise for real-time forecasting, they often struggle with accumulating phase and amplitude errors as predictions extend over a long period. To address this issue, we propose a novel loss decomposition strategy that breaks down the loss into separate phase and amplitude components. This technique improves the long-term prediction accuracy of neural networks in wave propagation tasks by explicitly accounting for numerical errors, improving stability, and reducing error accumulation over extended forecasts.
