한 줄 요약

Dissipative SymODEN은 port-Hamiltonian dynamics를 통해 에너지 소실과 외부 입력을 통합함으로써 SymODEN을 확장하고, 비보존 시스템의 물리 정보 기반 학습을 통해 정확도와 해석 가능성을 향상시킵니다.

ABSTRACT

In this work, we introduce Dissipative SymODEN, a deep learning architecture which can infer the dynamics of a physical system with dissipation from observed state trajectories. To improve prediction accuracy while reducing network size, Dissipative SymODEN encodes the port-Hamiltonian dynamics with energy dissipation and external input into the design of its computation graph and learns the dynamics in a structured way. The learned model, by revealing key aspects of the system, such as the inertia, dissipation, and potential energy, paves the way for energy-based controllers.

• Motivate learning accurate dynamics of physical systems with dissipation from observed trajectories.
• Incorporate energy dissipation and external inputs into a Hamiltonian-based learning framework.
• Provide a structured neural network architecture that reveals inertia, dissipation, and potential energy.

제안 방법

• Use port-Hamiltonian dynamics with a dissipation term to model non-conservative systems.
• Represent inverse mass matrix, potential energy, input matrix, and dissipation matrix with neural nets.
• Define Hamiltonian H as (1/2)p^T M^{-1}(q) p + V(q) and compute dynamics via structured RHS as in (5) and (6).
• Handle embedded angle data with an angle-aware formulation that uses (cos q, sin q, qdot, u) as state representation.
• Enforce positive semi-definiteness of D and positive definiteness of M^{-1} via Cholesky-factor parameterizations.
• Train with Neural ODE using differentiable solvers and use a constant input u during training to learn the RHS.

주요 결과

• Dissipative SymODEN achieves higher accuracy with fewer parameters than baseline variants across tasks.
• Including dissipation improves prediction and generalization over the original SymODEN which lacks dissipation.
• Angle-aware embedding yields better learning of the dissipation term and aligns learned dynamics with ground truth.
• Unstructured Dissipative SymODEN underperforms compared to the structured Dissipative SymODEN due to weaker inductive biases.
• The learned components (e.g., M^{-1}, V, g, D) provide interpretable physical insights relevant to energy-based control methods.
