## Abstract (arXiv)

We consider the problem of using SciML to predict solutions of high Mach fluid flows over irregular geometries. In this setting, data is limited, and so it is desirable for models to perform well in the low-data setting. We show that Neural Basis Functions (NBF), which learns a basis of behavior modes from the data and then uses this basis to make predictions, is more effective than a basis-unaware baseline model. In addition, we identify continuing challenges in the space of predicting solutions for this type of problem.
