数据驱动的神经柯普曼算子理论已成为线性化和控制非线性机器人的有力工具。然而,这些数据驱动模型的性能从根本上依赖于样本量与模型维度之间的权衡,而这一关系的规模定律长期未被明确。本文建立了一个严格的框架,推导并实证验证了连接样本量、隐空间维度与下游控制质量的规模定律。我们推导出柯普曼近似误差的理论上限,明确将其分解为采样误差与投影误差。结果显示,这两项误差随数据集大小和隐维度以特定速率衰减,为规模定律提供了严格依据。基于理论结果,我们引入两种轻量级正则化项:协方差损失用于稳定学习到的隐特征,逆控制损失确保模型与物理执行器对齐。在六个机器人环境中的系统性实验表明,模型拟合误差遵循所推导的规模定律,且正则化提升了动态模型拟合保真度,进而增强了闭环控制性能。综上,我们的结果为学习柯普曼动力学进行控制时,分配数据采集与模型容量的努力提供了一套简单可行的方案。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Data-driven neural Koopman operator theory has emerged as a powerful tool for linearizing and controlling nonlinear robotic systems. However, the performance of these data-driven models fundamentally depends on the trade-off between sample size and model dimensions, a relationship for which the scaling laws have remained unclear. This paper establishes a rigorous framework to address this challenge by deriving and empirically validating scaling laws that connect sample size, latent space dimension, and downstream control quality. We derive a theoretical upper bound on the Koopman approximation error, explicitly decomposing it into sampling error and projection error. We show that these terms decay at specific rates relative to dataset size and latent dimension, providing a rigorous basis for the scaling law. Based on the theoretical results, we introduce two lightweight regularizers for the neural Koopman operator: a covariance loss to help stabilize the learned latent features and an inverse control loss to ensure the model aligns with physical actuation. The results from systematic experiments across six robotic environments confirm that model fitting error follows the derived scaling laws, and the regularizers improve dynamic model fitting fidelity, with enhanced closed-loop control performance. Together, our results provide a simple recipe for allocating effort between data collection and model capacity when learning Koopman dynamics for control.
