Towards reliable data-based optimal and predictive control using extended DMD

Abstract: While Koopman-based techniques like extended Dynamic Mode Decomposition are nowadays ubiquitous in the data-driven approximation of dynamical systems, quantitative error estimates were only recently established. To this end, both sources of error resulting from a finite dictionary and only finitely-many data points in the generation of the surrogate model have to be taken into account. We generalize the rigorous analysis of the approximation error to the control setting while simultaneously reducing the impact of the curse of dimensionality by using a recently proposed bilinear approach. In particular, we establish uniform bounds on the approximation error of state-dependent quantities like constraints or a performance index enabling data-based optimal and predictive control with guarantees.
