This research introduces a neural network surrogate for NRSur7dq4 waveforms that achieves 10x speedup and full differentiability on GPUs, enabling efficient gradient-based inference for gravitational wave astronomy. By decomposing complex precessing binary black hole mergers into trainable multilayer perceptrons, the model bridges high-accuracy numerical relativity with scalable machine learning pipelines without sacrificing fidelity across its parameter space.
Fast, accurate, and differentiable: a neural-network surrogate for NRSur7dq4 precessing binary black hole waveforms
arXiv:2607.24960v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present a neural network surrogate model that emulates the NRSur7dq4 gravitational waveform model for precessing binary black hole mergers. The surrogate decomposes the waveform into constituent quantities and trains an independent multilayer perceptron (MLP) for each. We validate the surrogate against NRSur7dq4 on 10,000 waveforms spanning its full parameter space ($1 \leq q \leq 4$, $|\chi_{A,B}| \leq 0.8$). For representative total masses between 60 and 300 $M_\odot$, median sky-averaged frequency-domain mismatches range from $8.0 \times 10^{-5}$ to $1.7 \times 10^{-4}$, with 95th percentiles below $10^{-3}$. On an NVIDIA L40S GPU the JAX surrogate evaluates a single waveform in about 1 ms end-to-end, roughly 10 times faster than the LALSimulation C implementation of NRSur7dq4, and sustains about 140 times the LALSimulation throughput at batch size 64, making it well suited for both low-latency parameter-estimation samplers and large-scale waveform generation. The full NRSur7dq4 NN waveform-to-likelihood pipeline is implemented in JAX and is differentiable. This is the first neural-network surrogate of a precessing numerical-relativity waveform model to combine validated NR-faithful accuracy with a fully differentiable, GPU-accelerated inference pipeline, enabling gradient-based inference approaches via automatic differentiation including Fisher information matrices, GPU-accelerated nested sampling, gradient-based MCMC and importance sampling.
