I am working on reduced-order modeling of CFD simulation data.
Problem:
In both approaches, the variation in coefficients/latents with respect to inputs is extremely small. Most coefficients appear almost constant, making ML prediction very poor (low R²).
What I have tried:
Are there best practices for ensuring the reduced-order basis captures input-sensitive variations?
Any advice from those experienced with ROMs, POD, or CFD-to-ML mapping would be appreciated ?
