Verification of Unknown Dynamical Systems via Autoencoder Latent Space

arXiv:2512.13593v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Formal verification provides a powerful framework for proving that dynamical systems satisfy their specifications. However, these techniques face scalability challenges in high-dimensional settings, as they often rely on state-space discretization which grows exponentially with dimension. Learning-based approaches to dimensionality reduction, utilizing neural networks and autoencoders, have shown great potential to alleviate this problem. However, ensuring correctness of latent space verification results remains an open question. In this work
