Deep Learning Method for Stationary Distribution of Reflected Brownian Motion

Abstract

The stationary distribution of reflected Brownian motion (RBM) plays an important role in the analysis of high-dimensional stochastic systems, yet closed-form solutions are known only for a few special cases. Computing important performance metrics, such as tail probabilities, is even more intractable, despite their practical relevance. In this paper, we develop a deep learning approach that accurately and efficiently learns the Laplace transform of high-dimensional RBMs based on the basic adjoint relationship (BAR). Our framework combines a careful design of the loss function, training data sampling procedure, and neural network architecture. We evaluate the proposed method on RBM instances with known ground-truth tail probabilities and demonstrate near-perfect prediction in high-dimensional settings, highlighting its potential as a general tool for analyzing stochastic systems beyond analytically tractable regimes.
