Abstract
As known to all, problems consume more and more computational resources, for example, memory and time, with the gradual enhancements of both the size of the physical domain and complexity in numerical methods. Computational efficiencies have to be obviously influenced, especially for the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) solver due to its inflexibility in discretization principle. To further overcome this problem, the neural turing machine (NTM) model, based on the differentiable decision tree (DDT), is chosen and incorporated to improve the efficiencies during the FDTD solver in our work. The DDT-based NTM model has the remarkable advantages of both trees and neural networks, which can better explain for the numerical data. Meanwhile, it has full differentiability through neural networks and can be trained by the powerful deep-learning processes. The proposed DDT-based NTM model could not only enhance both accuracy and efficiency but also successfully integrate into the FDTD solver to implement the microstrip transmission line.
