Local Projected Controllability of Nonlocal Continuity Equations
Abstract
We formulate and study the problem of local projected controllability (LPC) for characteristic solutions of controlled nonlocal continuity (transport) equations on the space of probability measures over a separable Banach space. The task is motivated in particular by self-interacting models in machine learning, whose action can be represented as controlled dynamics of the probability distribution over input data, while the actual output is given by a finite-dimensional vector of features extracted from the terminal distribution by a possibly nonlinear observation map. Given a fixed finite family of velocity fields which may depend on the transported measure, we ask whether the reachable values of the observable vector fill a neighborhood of its reference value. Our approach is to lift the transport equation in the space of measures to an ordinary differential equation on a Banach space of maps. This representation makes it possible to employ the machinery of Lie brackets developed for Banach manifolds, while the resulting sufficient condition for LPC can be formulated directly on the space of measures.
