This paper is concerned with data-driven reachability analysis of discrete-time nonlinear systems without any dynamical model. We use only a number of observations of trajectories of the system to estimate the actual reachable set. With the data set, using the Support Vector Data Description (SVDD) technique, we propose a sample-based approximation method to solve the reachability analysis problem, which can be considered as a one-class classification problem. Under the framework of scenario optimization, we then derive over approximations of the reachable set in a probabilistic sense with Lipschitz continuity and other regularity conditions. Finally, we demonstrate the proposed method on a numerical example.
