Popis: The field of fluid simulation is developing rapidly, and data-driven methods provide many frameworks and techniques for fluid simulation. This paper presents a survey of data-driven methods used in fluid simulation in computer graphics in recent years. First, we provide a brief introduction of physicalbased fluid simulation methods based on their spatial discretization, including Lagrangian, Eulerian, and hybrid methods. The characteristics of these underlying structures and their inherent connection with datadriven methodologies are then analyzed. Subsequently, we review studies pertaining to a wide range of applications, including data-driven solvers, detail enhancement, animation synthesis, fluid control, and differentiable simulation. Finally, we discuss some related issues and potential directions in data-driven fluid simulation. We conclude that the fluid simulation combined with data-driven methods has some advantages, such as higher simulation efficiency, rich details and different pattern styles, compared with traditional methods under the same parameters. It can be seen that the data-driven fluid simulation is feasible and has broad prospects.
