Summary:
In this article, we illustrate the effect of imposing symmetry as prior knowledge into the modelling stage, within the context of chaotic time series predictions. It is illustrated that using Least-Squares Support Vector Machines with symmetry constraints improves the simulation performance, for the cases of time series generated from the Lorenz attractor, and multi-scroll attractors. Not only accurate forecasts are obtained, but also the forecast horizon for which these predictions are obtained is expanded.
