The National Science Foundation Division of Mathematical Sciences awarded Auburn University $299,602 on August 1, 2026, under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) to develop a mathematically rigorous framework for amortized Bayesian inference in partial differential equation-constrained inverse problems. The project establishes convergence theory and error bounds for a new computational method that performs inference in a single fast step without repeated simulation, while providing reliable uncertainty estimates. The approach combines rigorous mathematical theory with artificial intelligence tools to enable trustworthy, real-time decision-making in water resource management, healthcare, and infrastructure monitoring. The research derives exact posterior scores from Gaussian mixture model approximations to eliminate the need for neural score learning, addressing the current computational bottleneck where inverse problem inference often requires weeks of supercomputer time. Auburn University will deliver research outputs, graduate and undergraduate student training at the intersection of applied mathematics and artificial intelligence, new course materials, and workshops to broaden participation in scientific machine learning with recruitment focused on underrepresented groups in science and engineering. Period of performance runs from August 1, 2026, through July 31, 2029, with all work performed at Auburn University in Auburn, Alabama.
