Learning Unsteady Aneurysm Hemodynamics with Physics-Informed DeepONets

Clinically actionable, patient-specific hemodynamic assessment, specifically wall shear stress, vortex structure and pressure distributions, is critical for determining risky or unfavorable evolution in Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms (AAA). While Physics-Informed Deep Operator Networks (PI-DeepONets) show promising results in complementing established 5 tools such as Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), a persistent architectural challenge remains for complex 3D flows. In this direction, we propose a Modified Multi-Input Multi-Output PI-DeepONets (M3PI-DeepONet) designed for predicting unsteady flows in an idealized AAA geometry. Central to our model is the Aggregated Injection strategy, where latent representations from multiple input branches are fused prior to trunk injection, allowing the coordinate basis to adapt to multiple physical constraints. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first architecture to combine the layer-wise gating mechanism with a multi-branch operator-network topology, yielding an input-adaptive trunk basis. Additionally, we integrate the 3D Navier-Stokes equations as governing physical laws, so the model is trained based on physics-informed residuals, initial and boundary conditions, and only 0.3% of the labeled internal data together with the selected branch-conditioning signals. The M3PI-DeepONet simultaneously predicts unsteady 3D flow velocity and pressure fields with an average relative L2 velocity error below 4% and pressure error around 5% while achieving a conservative retained-cycle inference speedup of approximately 36x compared to reference CFD simulations once the branch inputs used for conditioning are available. This work advances the application of deep learning in cardiovascular disease modeling, marking step toward real-time, non-invasive clinical diagnostics.

Enhanced Vascular Flow Simulations in Aortic Aneurysm via Physics-Informed Neural Networks and Deep Operator Networks

Due to the limited accuracy of 4D Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) in identifying hemodynamics in cardiovascular diseases, the challenges in obtaining patient-specific flow boundary conditions, and the computationally demanding and time-consuming nature of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations, it is crucial to explore new data assimilation algorithms that offer possible alternatives to these limitations. In the present work, we study Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs), Deep Operator Networks (DeepONets), and their Physics-Informed extensions (PI-DeepONets) in predicting vascular flow simulations in the context of a 3D Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) idealized model. PINN is a technique that combines deep neural networks with the fundamental principles of physics, incorporating the physics laws, which are given as partial differential equations, directly into loss functions used during the training process. On the other hand, DeepONet is designed to learn nonlinear operators from data and is particularly useful in studying parametric partial differential equations (PDEs), e.g., families of PDEs with different source terms, boundary conditions, or initial conditions. Here, we adapt the approaches to address the particular use case of AAA by integrating the 3D Navier-Stokes equations (NSE) as the physical laws governing fluid dynamics. In addition, we follow best practices to enhance the capabilities of the models by effectively capturing the underlying physics of the problem under study. The advantages and limitations of each approach are highlighted through a series of relevant application cases. We validate our results by comparing them with CFD simulations for benchmark datasets, demonstrating good agreements and emphasizing those cases where improvements in computational efficiency are observed.
