Whoa, these do look like strange attractors! Especially the one at 2:37, the spirals there almost remind me of ones you see in Mandelbrot sets. Also... Debussy's First Arabesque is one of the few pieces I can still play on the piano, so i recognized it right away heehee

What is this, a crossover episode?

[@julespoon2884]

They are indeed related to Mandelbrot sets. Ok, closer to Julia sets actually. Parametrically, the Julia set describes all points c=(x,y) such that the set generated by the recursion x’=x^2-y^2+a, y’=2xy+b and c is closed, where a and b are reals. That said, a special case of the video described by x’=x^2-y^2+f(t), y’=2xy+g(t) would generate subsets of the Julia set at point f+g*i. Doing a transformation of this equation would give a ‘warped’, somewhat empty, Julia like object. Which is why a lot of the video’s equations here have those spirals, which btw are misiurewicz points of the recurrence. Now, the reason why it looks like the Mandelbrot set as well is because the Mandelbrot set behaves like a Julia fractal locally, which can easily be seen from the eqns that generate them.

Cool! My profile picture came from doing the same with a function called an LSTM in machine learning, just recursively applying it to a point cloud. It’s surprising how complex these patterns in your video can be coming from such simple equations! Thanks for sharing, love your work.

[@CodeParade]

That's really neat, I never though to do it with neural networks.

[@giantneuralnetwork]

CodeParade Yeah! Thought it’d reveal something about their inner structure or modeling power but in the end I just got some pretty pictures :-) I think the patterns did change a bit with different activation functions or bigger nets, will have to revisit it sometime.

[@WildAnimalChannel]

Interesting. Well the input would be a vector V=(x,y,x^2,y^2,t,1). And then you'd apply M^n V where M is a matrix of weights. But in a neural net you'd also apply like a sigmoid function. Yes, I can see the connection. So it's like these are patterns represent the complex things an recurrent neural network can replicate. Maybe even be Turing complete with very precise input values. Fascinating. Maybe you'd have to allow quadratic neural networks instead of just linear ones even though. hmm...

Hey CodeParade. I'd like to say first of all that what you made is absolutely amazing. I've come across one equation in particular- to me- resembles works by Piet Mondrian; the code is OMMDMM. Again, wonderful work.

[@only2ndplace]

I guess the technical term for these equations in nonlinear dynamics would be "a family of discrete chaotic maps". If you want to treat them as a dynamical system your t is not really time. Instead the time is characterized by the number of iterations n of the equations. You start with a point (x_0, y_0) = (t,t) (initial condition) and each iteration of the equations (the map) gives you the next point on the trajectory. In other words you have (x_n+1, y_n+1) = f(x_n, y_n) which is a discrete map because the "time" n is not continous. If you look at the result for some fixed t you are looking at one trajectory of the dynamical system up to the time n which equals the number of points you draw. Because your map also depends on t it is actually not a single map but a family of parameterized maps. You could say if you change t you are changing the "laws of nature" by which your dynamical system operates in a controlled manner. A well-known one-dimensional example of what you are doing would be the logistic map en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logistic_map where the control parameter r corresponds to your t. All of this also means that you are indeed looking at strange attractors in many of these images.

[@edwardlau892]

The coefficient for each term is either -1, 0 or 1, and each iterative equation would have variables x^2, y^2, t^2, xy, xt, yt, x, y and t. That gives us 3^18 permutations, and you used one letter of alphabet along with an underscore to contain 27 combinations, in order to use 6 letters to represent all possible combinations. Neat. Wild guesses below: x^2, y^2, t^2, xy, xt, yt, x, y, t coefficients for x' correlates with the first three letter, while the nine coefficients for y' is contained by the latter three. _ is (-1,-1,-1) for the three terms it corresponds, and A is (-1,-1,0), D is (-1,0,0), so it increments by balanced ternary system.

I think the mathematical concept closest to this is Differential Equations. How the new coordinates are calculated isn't exactly clear from the explanation in the video, so I can't tell for sure, but it looks very much like the solutions to some (ordinary two-dimensional) differential equations (of first order). Interesting stuff, there's a lot of literature about it.

[@floriandaler5327]

I unterstand it like this: at the beginnig of each frame, x and y are set to t. After that, the two equations are executed several (thousand?) times and after each iteration, the new point gets plotted onto the screen. After that (for a new frame), the screen gets cleared, t gets incremented by a very small amount and everything starts again. I hope that my explanation is correct and clears this topic up...
