Bioengineering Signals and Systems
A strange attractor is a complex pattern in the phase space of a dynamical system that shows sensitive dependence on initial conditions, leading to chaotic behavior. These attractors arise in nonlinear systems and are characterized by their fractal structure, which means that they have a self-similar pattern at different scales. In biological systems, strange attractors can help explain the unpredictable and often complex dynamics observed in processes like population dynamics, neural activity, and disease spread.
congrats on reading the definition of Strange attractor. now let's actually learn it.
