• Abstract: Forecasting the evolution of complex dynamical systems remains a fundamentally challenging task, primarily due to pronounced nonlinear interactions, high-dimensional state spaces, and the concomitant requirement for rigorous and reliable uncertainty quantification. Contemporary reduced-order modelling (ROM) frameworks frequently exhibit inherent trade-offs among predictive accuracy, numerical stability, and interpretability, and thus often fail to achieve an optimal balance among these competing objectives. To address these limitations, we propose a framework for forecasting complex dynamical systems via a kernel autonomous ordinary differential equation approach based on Gaussian Processes and Quadratic Order Model Reduction. Our base method, the Gaussian Process Ordinary Differential Equations model, allows accurate short-term forecasting with uncertainty quantification, and it provably converges to the real autonomous equation in the smooth case. We integrate it with quadratic order reduced-order modelling and sphere projection for learning the latent dynamics efficiently while preserving stability. Numerical experiments demonstrate that our full model outperforms ROM forecasting methods such as Extended Dynamic Mode Decomposition, Bagging Optimised Dynamic Mode Decomposition and Linear and Nonlinear Disambiguation Optimisation in terms of accuracy or computational costs. These results demonstrate the potential of the framework as a robust and stable tool for forecasting complex dynamical systems with rigorous uncertainty quantification.

• Distributionally Robust Model-based Reinforcement Learning with Large State Spaces [55.14361269378122]
  Three major challenges in reinforcement learning are the complex dynamical systems with large state spaces, the costly data acquisition processes, and the deviation of real-world dynamics from the training environment deployment. We study distributionally robust Markov decision processes with continuous state spaces under the widely used Kullback-Leibler, chi-square, and total variation uncertainty sets. We propose a model-based approach that utilizes Gaussian Processes and the maximum variance reduction algorithm to efficiently learn multi-output nominal transition dynamics.
