Identification of Chaotic Systems by Neural Networks

2012, Chaos and Complex Systems

Abstract

In this paper a traditional Multi Layer Perceptron with a tapped delay line as input is trained to identify the parameters of the Chua's circuit when fed with a sequence of values of a scalar state variable. The analysis of the a priori identifiability of the system, performed resorting to differential algebra, allows one to choose a suitable observable and the minimum number of taps. The results confirm the appropriateness of the proposed approach.

Key takeaways

  • In this paper, a neural network is applied to parameter identification of chaotic systems starting from suitable observable variables.
  • Parameter identification concerns the problem of which parameters of an ordinary differential equation (ODE) model can be evaluated from a given output.
  • The Multi Layer Perceptron (MLP) is the most widely used type of neural network.
  • When α=10, β=16, c=-0.143, Chua's circuit exhibit a chaotic behaviour.
  • Then, chosen a proper observable, a neural network has been trained to learn the relationship between a sequence of the observable values and one unknown parameter.
