Abstract
A number of genuine phenomena occurring in nature calls for nonlinearity to be described properly. Among them, chaotic dynamics is the most puzzling and intriguing one. It has been found that systems with chaotic dynamics abound in nature, and examples can be drawn from almost any scientific discipline. This tutorial presents an overview of some basic methods in the field of nonlinear dynamics.1 In particular, questions of embedding data into high-dimensional spaces are addressed.2.3
