Abstract: | We present a method for obtaining a set of dynamical equations for a system that exhibits a chaotic time series. The time
series data is first embedded in an appropriate phase space by using the improved time delay technique of Broomhead and King
(1986). Next, assuming that the flow in this space is governed by a set of coupled first order nonlinear ordinary differential
equations, a least squares fitting method is employed to derive values for the various unknown coefficients. The ability of
the resulting model equations to reproduce global properties like the geometry of the attractor and Lyapunov exponents is
demonstrated by treating the numerical solution of a single variable of the Lorenz and Rossler systems in the chaotic regime
as the test time series. The equations are found to provide good short term prediction (a few cycle times) but display large
errors over large prediction time. The source of this shortcoming and some possible improvements are discussed. |
