Inferring hidden forcing in a biological oscillator using Kolmogorov-Arnold networks

Inferring the forces that drive a dynamical system from partial observations is a fundamental challenge across physics, particularly when distinct underlying mechanisms produce similar observable dynamics. Here we show that the effective muscular forcing underlying avian respiratory dynamics can be reconstructed from measurements of air-sac pressure alone. Using an interpretable learning framework based on Kolmogorov-Arnold networks, we infer the governing equations of the system directly from data and uncover a nontrivial structure in the underlying forcing that is not apparent from the pressure signal, which instead suggests a relaxation-like oscillation. The reconstructed dynamics predict a two-phase activation pattern within each respiratory cycle, which we independently validate through electromyographic recordings of expiratory muscles. These results demonstrate that data-driven reconstruction of dynamical laws can reveal hidden physical structure and provide access to unobserved driving variables, establishing a general route to infer latent forces in partially observed dynamical systems.
