Adaptive LOOCV-based kernel methods for solving time-dependent BVPs

In this paper we propose an adaptive scheme for the solution of time-dependent boundary value problems (BVPs). To solve numerically these problems, we consider the kernel-based method of lines that allows us to split the spatial and time derivatives, dealing with each separately. This adaptive algorithm is based on a leave-one-out cross validation (LOOCV) technique, which is employed as an error indicator. By this scheme, we can first detect the domain areas where the error is estimated to be too large -- generally due to steep variations or quick changes in the solution -- and then accordingly enhance the numerical solution by applying a two-point refinement strategy. Numerical experiments show the efficacy and performance of our adaptive refinement method.
