Echo-State Networks Reproduce Rare Events in Chaotic Systems

other · 2026-05-07

In a study, researchers utilized Echo-State Networks to forecast time series and statistical characteristics of the Lotka-Volterra model under chaotic conditions. These networks effectively captured the chaotic attractor and generated histograms for dependent variables, encompassing tails and infrequent occurrences. Additionally, they were able to replicate rare events during non-equilibrium simulations of the Lotka-Volterra system. To assess tail behavior, the Generalized Extreme Value distribution was employed.
