Abstract
We propose two globally continuous neural-based variants of the Neural Approximated Virtual Element Method (NAVEM), termed B-NAVEM and P-NAVEM. Both approaches construct local basis functions using pre-trained fully connected neural networks while ensuring exact continuity across adjacent mesh elements. B-NAVEM leverages a Physics-Informed Neural Network to approximately solve the local Laplace problem that defines the virtual element basis functions, whereas P-NAVEM directly enforces polynomial reproducibility via a tailored loss function, without requiring harmonicity within the element interior. Numerical experiments assess the methods in terms of computational cost, memory usage, and accuracy during both training and testing phases.
