Abstract :
This tutorial presents an in-depth introduction to chaos in dynamical systems, and presents several practical techniques for recognizing and classifying chaotic behavior. These techniques include the poincaré map, Lyapunov exponents, capacity, information dimension, correlation dimension, Lyapunov dimension, and the reconstruction of attractors from a single time series.
