Learning Coupled Oscillators System with Reservoir Computing

In this paper, we reconstruct the dynamic behavior of the ring-coupled Lorenz oscillators system by reservoir computing. Although the reconstruction of various complex chaotic attractors has been well studied by using various neural networks, little attention has been paid to whether the spatio-temporal structure of some special attractors can be maintained in long-term prediction. Reservoir computing has been shown to be effective for model-free prediction, so we want to investigate whether reservoir computing can restore the rotational symmetry of the original ring-coupled Lorenz system. We find that although the state prediction of the trained reservoir computer will gradually deviate from the actual trajectory of the original system, the associated spatio-temporal structure is maintained in the process of reconstruction. Specifically, we show that the rotational symmetric structure of periodic rotating waves, quasi-periodic torus, and chaotic rotating waves is well maintained.
