Description

Summary

Implement KNO, which approximates the Koopman operator to convert nonlinear PDE solving into linear prediction problems.

Description

KNO leverages Koopman operator theory: any nonlinear dynamical system can be represented as a linear operator acting on an infinite-dimensional space of observables. KNO learns this linear representation, converting nonlinear PDE solving into linear prediction. The paper presents MLP-based and CNN-based compact variants, plus larger variants built on vision transformers.

This connects naturally to the DynamicalSystems.jl ecosystem and could leverage existing Koopman analysis tools in the SciML ecosystem.

Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by surveying the existing NeuralOperators.jl implementations and the referenced Koopman analysis tools in the SciML ecosystem, then define the supported KNO variant, API, validation data, and acceptance tests before implementation; done should include a working KNO model with documented behavior and tests.
