## What it is
DeepXDE is a Python library for scientific machine learning and physics-informed learning, built on top of PyTorch, TensorFlow, JAX, and PaddlePaddle. It implements algorithms such as physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) and DeepONet for solving forward and inverse ODEs, PDEs, and learning operators.

## Use cases
- solve forward and inverse PDEs with neural networks
- train physics-informed neural networks (PINNs)
- learn operators with DeepONet
- solve fractional and stochastic differential equations
- fit multi-fidelity physics data
- perform inverse design and topology optimization with hard constraints

## When to choose
- you need a mature, well-documented PINN library with multiple backend support
- you want to solve ODEs/PDEs or learn operators without writing training loops from scratch
- you need advanced PINN variants like gPINN, fPINN, or adaptive sampling

## When to avoid
- you need general-purpose deep learning outside scientific computing
- you require a permissively licensed library (it is LGPL-2.1)
- you need high-performance traditional numerical PDE solvers rather than neural approaches

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: stable
- function: machine-learning, deep-learning, simulation, math
- domain: machine-learning, deep-learning, simulation, mathematics
- platform: python, cross-platform
- tags: pinn, deeponet, physics-informed-neural-networks, pde-solver, operator-learning, scientific-computing, pytorch, tensorflow, jax, paddle, scientific-machine-learning
