Learning algorithms for mean field optimal control

We analyze an algorithm to numerically solve the mean-field optimal control problems by approximating the optimal feedback controls using neural networks with problem specific architectures. We approximate the model by an $N$-particle system and leverage the exchangeability of the particles to obtain substantial computational efficiency. In addition to several numerical examples, a convergence analysis is provided. We also developed a universal approximation theorem on Wasserstein spaces.

Abstract

We analyze an algorithm to numerically solve the mean-field optimal control problems by approximating the optimal feedback controls using neural networks with problem specific architectures. We approximate the model by an $N$-particle system and leverage the exchangeability of the particles to obtain substantial computational efficiency. In addition to several numerical examples, a convergence analysis is provided. We also developed a universal approximation theorem on Wasserstein spaces.
