Sparse Identification of Dynamical Systems using Linear Delay Differential Operators

Speaker: 
Dr. Fahhad Hussain Alharbi

Date: Monday, 4 December 2023
Time: 11:00 a.m.
Location: Bldg. 6/Room 125

Abstract:
Understanding physical phenomena and developing mathematical models to approximate them is at the core of natural sciences. These models must be interpretable and provide reasonable predictability to be useful. This is usually done either by physical reasoning or data-driven modeling. In this talk, a systematic data-driven identification method using LDDE operators is presented and applied to both LDDE and known nonlinear systems. The delays – in the developed method – are identified by the method itself and not left to the user. They are assumed to be inherent in the dynamics and not merely new coordinates and sampling techniques for approximation. The talk is more toward the identification method and approximating space construction. LDDE has an infinite-dimension dynamical space. Hopefully, this linear depiction would provide more physical insights and local reasoning. In real-life, interactions have finite traveling speeds, and hence dynamical systems should experience retardations.

Biography:
Dr. Fahhad is a professor in electrical engineering at KFUPM. He obtained his Ph.D. in electrical engineering with distinction from the University of Colorado at Boulder in 2004 and the MS. and BS. Degrees from KFUPM in 2001 and 1997 respectively. His current research interests are materials informatics, data-driven dynamical system modeling, and the development of atomistic computational methods.
