We suggest a universal map capable to recover a behavior of a wide range of dynamical systems given by ODEs. The map is built as an artificial neural network whose weights encode a modeled system. We assume that ODEs are known and prepare training datasets using the equations directly without computing numerical time series. Parameter variations are taken into account in the course of training so that the network model captures bifurcation scenarios of the modeled system. Theoretical benefit from this approach is that the universal model admits using common mathematical methods without needing to develop a unique theory for each particular dynamical equations. Form the practical point of view the developed method can be considered as an alternative numerical method for solving dynamical ODEs suitable for running on contemporary neural network specific hardware. We consider the Lorenz system, the Roessler system and also Hindmarch-Rose neuron. For these three examples the network model is created and its dynamics is compared with ordinary numerical solutions. High similarity is observed for visual images of attractors, power spectra, bifurcation diagrams and Lyapunov exponents.

Dimension of an inertial manifold for a chaotic attractor of spatially distributed system is estimated using autoencoder neural network. The inertial manifold is a low dimensional manifold where the chaotic attractor is embedded. The autoencoder maps system state vectors onto themselves letting them pass through an inner state with a reduced dimension. The training processes of the autoencoder is shown to depend dramatically on the reduced dimension: a learning curve saturates when the dimension is too small and decays if it is sufficient for a lossless information transfer. The smallest sufficient value is considered as a dimension of the inertial manifold, and the autoencoder implements a mapping onto the inertial manifold and back. The correctness of the computed dimension is confirmed by its remarkable coincidence with the one obtained as a number of covariant Lyapunov vectors with vanishing pairwise angles. These vectors are called physical modes. Unlike never having zero angles residual ones they are known to span a tangent subspace for the inertial manifold.
