Contraction-Guided Adaptive Partitioning for Reachability Analysis of Neural Network Controlled Systems
Akash Harapanahalli, Saber Jafarpour, Samuel Coogan
In this paper, we present a contraction-guided adaptive partitioning algorithm for improving interval-valued robust reachable set estimates in a nonlinear feedback loop with a neural network controller and disturbances. Based on an estimate of the contraction rate of over-approximated intervals, the algorithm chooses when and where to partition. Then, by leveraging a decoupling of the neural network verification step and reachability partitioning layers, the algorithm can provide accuracy improvements for little computational cost. This approach is applicable with any sufficiently accurate open-loop interval-valued reachability estimation technique and any method for bounding the input-output behavior of a neural network. Using contraction-based robustness analysis, we provide guarantees of the algorithm's performance with mixed monotone reachability. Finally, we demonstrate the algorithm's performance through several numerical simulations and compare it with existing methods in the literature. In particular, we report a sizable improvement in the accuracy of reachable set estimation in a fraction of the runtime as compared to state-of-the-art methods.
