Adaptive hp-Polynomial Based Sparse Grid Collocation Algorithms for Piecewise Smooth Functions with Kinks
<|reference_start|>Adaptive hp-Polynomial Based Sparse Grid Collocation Algorithms for Piecewise Smooth Functions with Kinks: High-dimensional interpolation problems appear in various applications of uncertainty quantification, stochastic optimization and machine learning. Such problems are computationally expensive and request the use of adaptive grid generation strategies like anisotropic sparse grids to mitigate the curse of dimensionality. However, it is well known that the standard dimension-adaptive sparse grid method converges very slowly or even fails in the case of non-smooth functions. For piecewise smooth functions with kinks, we construct two novel hp-adaptive sparse grid collocation algorithms that combine low-order basis functions with local support in parts of the domain with less regularity and variable-order basis functions elsewhere. Spatial refinement is realized by means of a hierarchical multivariate knot tree which allows the construction of localised hierarchical basis functions with varying order. Hierarchical surplus is used as an error indicator to automatically detect the non-smooth region and adaptively refine the collocation points there. The local polynomial degrees are optionally selected by a greedy approach or a kink detection procedure. Three numerical benchmark examples with different dimensions are discussed and comparison with locally linear and highest degree basis functions are given to show the efficiency and accuracy of the proposed methods.<|reference_end|>
