KANtrol: A Physics-Informed Kolmogorov-Arnold Network Framework for Solving Multi-Dimensional and Fractional Optimal Control Problems
<|reference_start|>KANtrol: A Physics-Informed Kolmogorov-Arnold Network Framework for Solving Multi-Dimensional and Fractional Optimal Control Problems: In this paper, we introduce the KANtrol framework, which utilizes Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks (KANs) to solve optimal control problems involving continuous time variables. We explain how Gaussian quadrature can be employed to approximate the integral parts within the problem, particularly for integro-differential state equations. We also demonstrate how automatic differentiation is utilized to compute exact derivatives for integer-order dynamics, while for fractional derivatives of non-integer order, we employ matrix-vector product discretization within the KAN framework. We tackle multi-dimensional problems, including the optimal control of a 2D heat partial differential equation. The results of our simulations, which cover both forward and parameter identification problems, show that the KANtrol framework outperforms classical MLPs in terms of accuracy and efficiency.<|reference_end|>
