Abstract
Many approaches to machine learning have struggled with applications that possess complex process dynamics. In contrast, human intelligence is adapted, and – arguably – built to deal with complex dynamics. The current theory holds that human brain achieves that by constantly rebuilding a model of the world based on the feedback it receives. I will describe an approach to machine learning of dynamical systems based on Koopman Operator Theory (KOT) that also produces generative, predictive, context-aware models amenable to (feedback) control applications. KOT has deep mathematical roots and I will discuss its basic tenets. I will also present computational methods that enable lean computation. A number of examples will be discussed, including use in fluid dynamics, soft robotics, and game dynamics.
