Fourier Weak SINDy: Spectral Test Function Selection for Robust Model Identification
We introduce Fourier Weak SINDy, a minimal noise-robust and interpretable derivative-free equation learning method that combines weak-form sparse equation learning with spectral density estimation for data-driven test function selection. By using orthogonal sinusoidal test functions inspired by their prevalence in Modulating Function-based system identification, the weak-form sparse regression problem reduces to a regression over Fourier coefficients. Dominant frequencies are then selected via multitaper estimation of the frequency spectrum of the data. This formulation unifies weak-form learning and spectral estimation within a compact and flexible framework. We illustrate the effectiveness of this approach in numerical experiments across multiple chaotic and hyperchaotic ODE benchmarks. In this paper, we present a minimal interpretable framework for noise-robust derivative-free equation learning that combines recent advances in sparse system identification with classical signal proce
