Numerical Continuation in Nonlinear Experiments using Local Gaussian Process Regression
L. Renson, J. Sieber, D. A. W. Barton +2
Control-based continuation (CBC) is a general and systematic method to probe the dynamics of nonlinear experiments. In this paper, CBC is combined with a novel continuation algorit…
