Forward to the Special Topic on“Solving Differential Equations with Deep Learning”

The concept of artificial intelligence(AI)was first presented at the Dartmouth SummerResearch Project on AI hosted by McCarthy and Minsky in 1956.After that,the developmentof AI has experienced ups and downs due to some limited conditions including intelligentcomputing techniques,computer and hardware and software^([1,2]).In particular,with the rapidof deep artificial neural networks,machine learning(ML)and deep learning(DL)techniques^([3,4])have been applied in many fields of science and engineering,including machine translation,image recognition,genomics,scientific computing and atmospheric science,etc^([5]).
