Researchers have developed Cluster-Weighted Extended Dynamic Mode Decomposition (CW-EDMD), a novel method for approximating Koopman operators from data. This approach addresses the inefficiency of single global operators in systems with distinct local dynamics by learning a soft phase-space partition and a per-cluster operator. CW-EDMD utilizes an Expectation-Maximization objective that considers both geometric proximity and prediction residuals, allowing clusters to specialize where local Koopman models are accurate. Experiments on Lorenz, damped pendulum, and Duffing systems demonstrated significant error reductions compared to matched-degree EDMD, with median one-step error reductions of 57x, 2.7x, and 12x respectively.
