Adaptive Detection of Instabilities: An Experimental Feasibility Study
We present an example of the practical implementation of a protocol for
experimental bifurcation detection based on on-line identification and feedback
control ideas. The idea is to couple the experiment with an on-line
computer-assisted identification/feedback protocol so that the closed-loop
system will converge to the open-loop bifurcation points. We demonstrate the
applicability of this instability detection method by real-time,
computer-assisted detection of period doubling bifurcations of an electronic
circuit; the circuit implements an analog realization of the Roessler system.
The method succeeds in locating the bifurcation points even in the presence of
modest experimental uncertainties, noise and limited resolution. The results
presented here include bifurcation detection experiments that rely on
measurements of a single state variable and delay-based phase space
reconstruction, as well as an example of tracing entire segments of a
codimension-1 bifurcation boundary in two parameter space.Comment: 29 pages, Latex 2.09, 10 figures in encapsulated postscript format

Recent advances on filtering and control for nonlinear stochastic complex systems with incomplete information: A survey
This Article is provided by the Brunel Open Access Publishing Fund - Copyright @ 2012 Hindawi PublishingSome recent advances on the filtering and control problems for nonlinear stochastic complex systems with incomplete information are surveyed. The incomplete information under consideration mainly includes missing measurements, randomly varying sensor delays, signal quantization, sensor saturations, and signal sampling. With such incomplete information, the developments on various filtering and control issues are reviewed in great detail. In particular, the addressed nonlinear stochastic complex systems are so comprehensive that they include conventional nonlinear stochastic systems, different kinds of complex networks, and a large class of sensor networks. The corresponding filtering and control technologies for such nonlinear stochastic complex systems are then discussed. Subsequently, some latest results on the filtering and control problems for the complex systems with incomplete information are given. Finally, conclusions are drawn and several possible future research directions are pointed out.This work was supported in part by the National Natural Science Foundation of China under Grant nos. 61134009, 61104125, 61028008, 61174136, 60974030, and 61074129, the Qing Lan Project of Jiangsu Province of China, the Project sponsored by SRF for ROCS of SEM of China, the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council EPSRC of the UK under Grant GR/S27658/01, the Royal Society of the UK, and the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation of Germany

Neural Ordinary Differential Equation Control of Dynamics on Graphs
We study the ability of neural networks to calculate feedback control signals
that steer trajectories of continuous time non-linear dynamical systems on
graphs, which we represent with neural ordinary differential equations (neural
ODEs). To do so, we present a neural-ODE control (NODEC) framework and find
that it can learn feedback control signals that drive graph dynamical systems
into desired target states. While we use loss functions that do not constrain
the control energy, our results show, in accordance with related work, that
NODEC produces low energy control signals. Finally, we evaluate the performance
and versatility of NODEC against well-known feedback controllers and deep
reinforcement learning. We use NODEC to generate feedback controls for systems
of more than one thousand coupled, non-linear ODEs that represent epidemic
processes and coupled oscillators.Comment: Fifth version improves and clears notatio
Systems of Singular Differential Equations as the Basis for Neural Network Modeling of Chaotic Processes
Currently, systems of neural ordinary differential equations (ODEs) have become widespread for modeling various dynamic processes. However, in forecasting tasks, priority remains with the classical neural network approach to building a model. This is due to the fact that by choosing the neural network architecture, a more accurate approximation of the trajectories of a dynamic system can be achieved. It is known that the accuracy of the mentioned approximation significantly depends on the settings of the neural network parameters and their initial values. In this regard, the main idea of the article is that the initial values of the neural network parameters are taken to be equal to the parameters of the neural ODE system obtained by modeling the same process, which will then be simulated using a neural network. Subsequently, the singular ODE system was used to adjust the parameters of the LSTM (Long Short Term Memory) neural network. The results obtained were used to model the process of epilepsy
