Abstract

Abstract Residual deep neural networks (ResNets) are mathematically described as interacting particle systems. In the case of infinitely many layers the ResNet leads to a system of coupled system of ordinary differential equations known as neural differential equations. For large scale input data we derive a mean–field limit and show well–posedness of the resulting description. Further, we analyze the existence of solutions to the training process by using both a controllability and an optimal control point of view. Numerical investigations based on the solution of a formal optimality system illustrate the theoretical findings.
