Tensorial neural networks (TNNs) combine the successes of multilinear algebra with those of deep learning to enable extremely efficient reduced-order models of high-dimensional problems. Here, I describe a deep neural network architecture that fuses multiple TNNs into a larger network, intended to solve a broader class of problems than a single TNN. I evaluate this architecture, referred to as a "stacked tensorial neural network" (STNN), on a parametric PDE with three independent variables and three parameters. The three parameters correspond to one PDE coefficient and two quantities describing the domain geometry. The STNN provides an accurate reduced-order description of the solution manifold over a wide range of parameters. There is also evidence of meaningful generalization to parameter values outside its training data. Finally, while the STNN architecture is relatively simple and problem agnostic, it can be regularized to incorporate problem-specific features like symmetries and physical modeling assumptions.
