This research introduces Dynamics-Aware Weighting (DAW), a novel loss reweighting framework designed to mitigate catastrophic error accumulation in deep learning forecasts of chaotic systems like the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation. By leveraging local dimensionality from dynamical systems theory rather than simple statistical density, DAW allocates model capacity to sparse, high-complexity regimes where traditional methods fail. The approach demonstrates consistent improvements over uniform training and standard imbalanced regression techniques by specifically suppressing error amplification during rare topological transitions.
DAW: Dynamics-Aware Weighting for Deep Learning Forecasts of Chaotic Systems
arXiv:2608.22277v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Deep learning surrogates for forecasting chaotic dynamical systems suffer from catastrophic error accumulation over long-term autoregressive rollouts. This behavior is partly tied to the underlying systems: chaotic spatiotemporal systems, such as the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky (KS) equation, visit phase space unevenly - dominated by recurrent, low-dimensional quiescent states (e.g., near-laminar flows) and punctuated by rare, dynamically complex topological transitions (e.g., wave-merging events). Under a sample-wise uniform objective, standard neural surrogates allocate their finite capacity to the statistically numerous quiescent states, under-representing the transient regimes that trigger disproportionate, localized errors. Existing imbalanced-regression methods reweight samples by target-space density. However, statistical target-space rarity need not coincide with the intrinsic dynamical rarity - the recurrence geometry of the attractor that is the source of the imbalance. To address this, we introduce Dynamics-Aware Weighting (DAW), a data-centric objective reweighting framework. Using the local dimension $d$ from dynamical systems theory as an a priori measure of a state's active degrees of freedom, DAW reshapes the loss landscape to allocate representational capacity toward the sparse, high-$d$ regimes where forecast errors are systematically large. On the chaotic KS equation, DAW consistently outperforms uniform training, purely statistical density weighting, and its randomly permuted ablation, reducing long-term autoregressive error relative to all baselines. Event-level analysis shows that DAW achieves this by suppressing the localized error amplifications incurred during sharp jumps in $d$, which accompany complex physical processes such as wave-merging in the KS system.
