Delay Embeddings
Delay embedding techniques reconstruct the full state of a dynamical system from observations of only a subset of its variables, leveraging the temporal correlations within the time series data. Current research focuses on applying delay embeddings within machine learning frameworks, particularly deep neural networks and state-space models, to improve prediction accuracy and parameter inference in complex systems, even with noisy or partially observed data. This approach is proving valuable across diverse fields, enabling more accurate modeling of chaotic systems, improved change-point detection in industrial processes, and enhanced signal reconstruction in applications like audio inpainting. The ability to effectively learn and utilize delay embeddings significantly advances our capacity to analyze and model complex, high-dimensional systems from limited data.
