Probabilistic Optimization with the Koopman Operator
Adam R. Gerlach
The probabilistic optimization of dynamical systems is often framed to minimize the expectation of a given loss function. For non-linear systems, the evaluation of such a loss function and its gradient can be expensive. In this work the Koopman Operator and its computational advantages are presented using the AD-compatible DiffEqUncertainty.jl.
