SUMMARY:Machine learning methods trained on simple models can predict critical transitions in complex natural systems - Shingo Gibo
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, we discuss the paper “Machine learning methods trained on simple models can predict critical transitions in complex natural systems” by  Smita Deb\, Sahil Sidheekh\, Christopher F. Clements\, Narayanan C. Krishnan\, and Partha S. Dutta\, in Royal Society Open Science\, (2022). \nAbstract:  \nForecasting sudden changes in complex systems is a critical but challenging task\, with previously developed methods varying widely in their reliability. Here we develop a novel detection method\, using simple theoretical models to train a deep neural network to detect critical transitions—the Early Warning Signal Network (EWSNet). We then demonstrate that this network\, trained on simulated data\, can reliably predict observed real-world transitions in systems ranging from rapid climatic change to the collapse of ecological populations. Importantly\, our model appears to capture latent properties in time series missed by previous warning signals approaches\, allowing us to not only detect if a transition is approaching\, but critically whether the collapse will be catastrophic or non-catastrophic. These novel properties mean EWSNet has the potential to serve as an indicator of transitions across a broad spectrum of complex systems\, without requiring information on the structure of the system being monitored. Our work highlights the practicality of deep learning for addressing further questions pertaining to ecosystem collapse and has much broader management implications.
