AI中文摘要：
我们针对双曲守恒律及其他时滞偏微分方程的数据同化问题，提出了一种新颖的正则性感知滤波框架。我们关注状态呈现陡峭梯度和跳跃间断的系统。尽管滤波被广泛用于通过结合观测数据改进数值模拟，但传统滤波方法缺乏对这些系统产生的状态的空间正则性的感知。因此，数据同化常常产生非物理的状态估计，在光滑区域引入虚假振荡并模糊尖锐特征。为解决这一局限，我们引入一种在滤波器分析步骤中结合保边缘正则化的滤波框架；该框架平衡模拟预报、观测数据和结构先验知识。我们使用集合卡尔曼滤波（EnKF）和一类分层广义稀疏贝叶斯学习（GSBL）先验将此方法形式化，该先验自适应推断空间变化的超参数，以在光滑区域促进非振荡行为，同时保留间断。我们在双曲守恒律控制的具有挑战性的基准问题上验证了所得GSBL-EnKF方法的有效性。结果表明，在分析步骤中保留正则性可提高复杂时变系统滤波的物理真实性和准确性，尤其在量化系统瞬态状态的不确定性时。
英文摘要：
We propose a novel regularity-informed filtering framework for data assimilation in the context of hyperbolic conservation laws and other time-dependent partial differential equations. We focus on systems whose states exhibit steep gradients and jump discontinuities. While filtering is widely used to improve numerical simulations by incorporating observational data, traditional filtering methods lack awareness of the spatial regularity of states produced in these systems. As a result, data assimilation often produces unphysical state estimates, introducing spurious oscillations in smooth regions and smearing sharp features. To address this limitation, we introduce a filtering framework that incorporates edge-preserving regularization into the filter's analysis step; this framework balances simulation forecasts, observational data, and structural prior knowledge. We formalize this approach using the ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) and a class of hierarchical generalized sparse Bayesian learning (GSBL) priors, which adaptively infer spatially varying hyperparameters to promote non-oscillatory behavior in smooth regions while preserving discontinuities. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the resulting GSBL-EnKF method on challenging benchmark problems governed by hyperbolic conservation laws. Our results show that enforcing regularity in the analysis step yields sharper, less oscillatory state estimates and lower errors of the ensemble mean. This sometimes comes at the cost of ensemble spread, which we quantify and discuss.
