Controllability of Gerasimov–Caputo fractional integro-differential equations: a theoretical and data-driven approach
摘要
The focus of this work is the study of the controllability aspect of Gerasimov–Caputo fractional integro-differential equations with control inputs. The existence of the controlled solutions is proved by the use of the Schauder fixed-point theorem and the application of suitable assumptions. A numerical example is presented to give proof of the theoretical findings, along with a 3D graphical representation that shows the effect of time and control inputs on the system state. Also, a data-driven approach is proposed with the help of artificial neural networks to estimate the state trajectories more efficiently. The artificial neural network predictions are in a very close match with the numerical reference solutions and are able to capture the nonlinear dynamics and the memory-dependent behavior of the fractional system very well. This hybrid framework consisting of rigorous theoretical verification, numerical validation, graphical interpretation, and artificial neural network-based approximation provides a practical and computationally efficient methodology for analyzing and controlling complex fractional-order systems in engineering and applied sciences.
