These one- or two-dimensional nonlinear models represent the leading-order reduced dynamics on attracting spectral submanifolds (SSMs), which we construct using the recently developed SSMLearn algorithm from a small number of simulated transitions. We find that the energy input and output rates provide efficient parametrizations for the most important SSMs. By restricting the dynamics to these SSMs, we obtain reduced-order models that also reliably predict nearby, off-SSM transitions that were not used in their training.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2022-03-24T14:46:28.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "dynamics-based machine learning", "transitions", "two-dimensional nonlinear models represent", "exact coherent states", "plane couette flow" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
