Unified Learning of the Profile Function in Discrete Keller-Segel Models

Abstract

We propose a unified learning framework for identifying the profile function in discrete Keller-Segel equations, which are widely used mathematical models for understanding chemotaxis. Training data are obtained via either a rigorously developed particle method designed for stable simulation of high-dimensional Keller-Segel systems, or stochastic differential equations approximating the continuous Keller-Segel PDE. Our approach addresses key challenges, including data instability in dimensions higher than two and the accurate capture of singular behavior in the profile function. Additionally, we introduce an adaptive learning strategy to enhance performance. Extensive numerical experiments are presented to validate the effectiveness of our method.
