Researchers at Duke University have developed a new artificial intelligence framework that aims to uncover clear, easy-to-understand rules behind some of the most complicated dynamics in nature and modern technology.
The system is inspired by the work of history’s great “dynamicists” – scientists who study systems that change over time. Just as Isaac Newton, often considered the first dynamicist, developed equations that connect force and motion, this AI analyzes data that shows how complex systems evolve and then creates equations that accurately describe that behavior.
What sets this approach apart is its ability to deal with complexity far beyond human capabilities. AI can reduce nonlinear systems with hundreds or even thousands of interacting variables to simpler rules with far fewer dimensions.
