-Variational autoencoders and transformers for reduced-order modelling of fluid flows

Alberto Solera-Rico, Carlos Sanmiguel Vila, M. A. Gómez +4

Variational autoencoder (VAE) architectures have the potential to develop reduced-order models (ROMs) for chaotic fluid flows. We propose a method for learning compact and near-ort…
