The paper presents the Kernel Sum of Squares (KSOS) method as a solution to improve kernel learning from data, particularly in dynamical systems. The authors highlight the limitations of traditional kernel-based methods, which struggle with selecting optimal base kernels and parameter tuning. KSOS addresses these issues by using a global optimization framework with kernel-based surrogate functions, leading to more reliable and precise learning of dynamical systems. Numerical experiments on the Logistic Map, Henon Map, and Lorentz System demonstrate that KSOS outperforms gradient descent in minimizing the relative-metric and improving kernel accuracy. The results show the effectiveness of KSOS in predicting chaotic dynamical system behavior, adapting kernels to underlying dynamics, and enhancing the robustness and predictive power of kernel-based approaches.

KSOS is a new way to learn from data that helps with complex systems like weather forecasts or financial markets. Right now, we use special kinds of math functions called “kernels” to understand these systems. But choosing the right kernel and tuning its settings can be tricky. KSOS makes it easier by using a different kind of math function that is more reliable and accurate. The authors tested KSOS on some famous examples in physics and found that it works better than other methods. This could help us make better predictions about complex systems.
