Position: Why a Dynamical Systems Perspective is Needed to Advance Time Series Modeling

ICML 2026poster

Time series (TS) modeling has come a long way from early statistical, mainly linear, approaches to the current trend in TS foundation models. With a lot of hype and industrial demand in this field, it is not always clear how much progress there really is. To advance TS forecasting and analysis to th…

Integrating Multimodal Data for Joint Generative Modeling of Complex Dynamics

ICML 2024poster

Many, if not most, systems of interest in science are naturally described as nonlinear dynamical systems. Empirically, we commonly access these systems through time series measurements. Often such time series may consist of discrete random variables rather than continuous measurements, or may be com…

Optimal Recurrent Network Topologies for Dynamical Systems Reconstruction

ICML 2024poster

In dynamical systems reconstruction (DSR) we seek to infer from time series measurements a generative model of the underlying dynamical process. This is a prime objective in any scientific discipline, where we are particularly interested in parsimonious models with a low parameter load. A common str…

Out-of-Domain Generalization in Dynamical Systems Reconstruction

ICML 2024poster

In science we are interested in finding the governing equations, the dynamical rules, underlying empirical phenomena. While traditionally scientific models are derived through cycles of human insight and experimentation, recently deep learning (DL) techniques have been advanced to reconstruct dynami…

Generalized Teacher Forcing for Learning Chaotic Dynamics

ICML 2023oral

Chaotic dynamical systems (DS) are ubiquitous in nature and society. Often we are interested in reconstructing such systems from observed time series for prediction or mechanistic insight, where by reconstruction we mean learning geometrical and invariant temporal properties of the system in questio…

Tractable Dendritic RNNs for Reconstructing Nonlinear Dynamical Systems

ICML 2022spotlight

In many scientific disciplines, we are interested in inferring the nonlinear dynamical system underlying a set of observed time series, a challenging task in the face of chaotic behavior and noise. Previous deep learning approaches toward this goal often suffered from a lack of interpretability and…
