用神经网络高效逼近随机过程,提升金融与控制建模精度
NeuralChaos: Optimal Adapted Approximation of Square Integrable Predictable Processes

- 设计神经算子NeuralChaos,仅需有限布朗运动采样即可生成预测过程
- 理论证明其逼近精度达最优N项混沌基展开率,适用于可压缩过程
- 相比传统马尔可夫模型更通用,适合金融、强化学习等场景
我们研究在区间[0,T]上取值于ℝᵈ的预测性平方可积过程的表示与计算问题,这些过程属于空间ℋ²ₜ(ℝᵈ),在连续时间随机控制、强化学习和数学金融中具有核心地位。尽管维纳-混沌展开具有强大理论基础,但传统计算方法受限于庞大的混沌词典和高阶迭代积分。为此,我们提出NeuralChaos——一种神经算子架构,仅需有限次驱动布朗运动的采样即可生成ℋ²ₜ(ℝᵈ)中的元素,同时保持预测性和平方可积性。我们证明NeuralChaos在ℋ²ₜ(ℝᵈ)中稠密,并对可压缩及Malliavin–Sobolev正则过程达到最优的N项混沌基逼近率。此外,非退化次高斯采样下,ℋ²ₜ(ℝᵈ)中的过程具有典型可压缩性。相比之下,有限维马尔可夫神经随机微分方程模型在ℋ²ₜ(ℝᵈ)中为稀疏集且为高斯零测集,无论离散化如何;而可压缩过程是普遍存在的。数值实验在随机最优控制与动态对冲问题中验证了方法的有效性。本工作推动了随机分析与数学金融中的高效、高表达力建模。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
We address fundamental challenges in representing and computing $\mathbb{R}^{d}$-valued predictable square-integrable processes over $[0,T]$, collected in the space $\mathcal{H}^2_T(\mathbb{R}^{d})$. These processes are central to continuous-time stochastic control, reinforcement learning, and mathematical finance. Although Wiener-chaos expansions offer strong theoretical tools, traditional computational methods are hindered by the need for large chaos dictionaries and high-order iterated integrals. To overcome these obstacles, we introduce NeuralChaos -- a neural operator architecture that produces elements of $\mathcal{H}^2_T(\mathbb{R}^{d})$ using only finitely many evaluations of the driving Brownian motion, while preserving predictability and square-integrability. We prove that NeuralChaos is dense in $\mathcal{H}^2_T(\mathbb{R}^{d})$ and achieves the best $N$-term chaoslet approximation rates for compressible and Malliavin--Sobolev regular processes. Moreover, compressibility is shown to be typical for processes from $\mathcal{H}^2_T(\mathbb{R}^{d})$ under non-degenerate sub-Gaussian sampling. In contrast, we show that finite-dimensional Markovian neural SDE models constitute a meagre and Gaussian-null subset in $\mathcal{H}^2_T(\mathbb{R}^{d})$, regardless of discretization, whereas compressible processes are generic. Numerical experiments on a stochastic optimal control problem and dynamic hedging highlight the practical effectiveness of our approach. Our results enable more efficient and expressive modelling in stochastic analysis and mathematical finance.
