Model discovery for dynamical systems with complex-valued product units 文章

arXiv:2605.27158v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Discovering the governing equations of a dynamical system from observed trajectories provides deeper insight into its structure than mere prediction of future states. We present a data-driven approach to model discovery based on complex-valued product-unit networks, in which each unit represents a complex monomial and the network output is a sparse linear combination of such monomials. In contrast to established library-based methods such as SINDy, our approach does not require a predefined set of candidate functions: the relevant monomials, including those with fractional or negative exponents, are learned directly from data. Across four chaotic benchmark systems (Lorenz63, Lorenz84, the Four-Wing attractor, and a fractional variant of Lorenz63), we recover the exact governing equations in 90% of trials for the first three systems, and in 70-90% of trials for the fractional case, using at least 3000 training points.
