• Abstract: Many social sciences such as psychology and economics try to learn the behaviour of complex agents such as humans, organisations and countries. The current statistical methods used for learning this behaviour try to infer generally valid behaviour, but can only learn from one type of study at a time. Furthermore, only data from carefully designed studies can be used, as the phenomenon of interest has to be isolated and confounding factors accounted for. These restrictions limit the robustness and accuracy of insights that can be gained from social/economic systems. Here we present the online platform TreeOfKnowledge which implements a new methodology specifically designed for learning complex behaviours from complex systems: agent-based behaviour learning. With agent-based behaviour learning it is possible to gain more accurate and robust insights as it does not have the restriction of conventional statistics. It learns agent behaviour from many heterogenous datasets and can learn from these datasets even if the phenomenon of interest is not directly observed, but appears deep within complex systems. This new methodology shows how the internet and advances in computational power allow for more accurate and powerful mathematical models.

  Reservoir computing is a machine learning approach that can generate a surrogate model of a dynamical system. Here, we study a challenging problem of learning a dynamical system that has both disparate time scales and multiple co-existing dynamical states (attractors) We show that the next-generation reservoir computing approach uses $sim 1.7 times$ less training data, requires $103 times$ shorter warm up' time, and has an $sim 100times$ higher accuracy in predicting the co-existing attractor characteristics.
