    Change in the embedding dimension as an indicator of an approaching transition
    (San Francisco, CA : Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2014) Neuman, Y.; Marwan, N.; Cohen, Y.
    Predicting a transition point in behavioral data should take into account the complexity of the signal being influenced by contextual factors. In this paper, we propose to analyze changes in the embedding dimension as contextual information indicating a proceeding transitive point, called OPtimal Embedding tRANsition Detection (OPERAND). Three texts were processed and translated to time-series of emotional polarity. It was found that changes in the embedding dimension proceeded transition points in the data. These preliminary results encourage further research into changes in the embedding dimension as generic markers of an approaching transition point.

    Experimental investigation on preconditioned rate induced tipping in a thermoacoustic system
    (London : Nature Publishing Group, 2017) Tony, J.; Subarna, S.; Syamkumar, K.S.; Sudha, G.; Akshay, S.; Gopalakrishnan, E.A.; Surovyatkina, E.; Sujith, R.I.
    Many systems found in nature are susceptible to tipping, where they can shift from one stable dynamical state to another. This shift in dynamics can be unfavorable in systems found in various fields ranging from ecology to finance. Hence, it is important to identify the factors that can lead to tipping in a physical system. Tipping can mainly be brought about by a change in parameter or due to the influence of external fluctuations. Further, the rate at which the parameter is varied also determines the final state that the system attains. Here, we show preconditioned rate induced tipping in experiments and in a theoretical model of a thermoacoustic system. We provide a specific initial condition (preconditioning) and vary the parameter at a rate higher than a critical rate to observe tipping. We find that the critical rate is a function of the initial condition. Our study is highly relevant because the parameters that dictate the asymptotic behavior of many physical systems are temporally dynamic.
