Modeling Systems with Machine Learning based Differential Equations

Abstract: The prediction of behavior in dynamical systems, is frequently subject to the design of models. When a time series obtained from observing the system is available, the task can be performed by designing the model from these observations without additional assumptions or by assuming a preconceived structure in the model, with the help of additional information about the system. In the second case, it is a question of adequately combining theory with observations and subsequently optimizing the mixture. In this work, we proposes the design of time-continuous models of dynamical systems as solutions of differential equations, from non-uniform sampled or noisy observations, using machine learning techniques. The performance of strategy is shown with both, several simulated data sets and experimental data from Hare-Lynx population and Coronavirus 2019 outbreack. Our results suggest that this approach to the modeling systems, can be an useful technique in the case of synthetic or experimental data.
