Bayesian inference of dynamics from partial and noisy observations using data assimilation and machine learning

The reconstruction from observations of high-dimensional chaotic dynamics such as geophysical flows is hampered by (i) the partial and noisy observations that can realistically be obtained, (ii) the need to learn from long time series of data, and (iii) the unstable nature of the dynamics. To achieve such inference from the observations over long time series, it has been suggested to combine data assimilation and machine learning in several ways. We show how to unify these approaches from a Bayesian perspective using expectation-maximization and coordinate descents. Implementations and approximations of these methods are also discussed. Finally, we numerically and successfully test the approach on two relevant low-order chaotic models with distinct identifiability.
