Volterra adaptive filter is used to predict low-dimensional chaotic time se
ries based on the state space reconstruction of delay-coordinate embedding
of dynamic system. It is shown, through experiments of predicting eight kin
ds of low-dimensional chaotic series using second-order Volterra adaptive f
ilters, that Volterra adaptive filters can accurately predict these chaotic
series when the length N-l of the Volterra filler is long enough, and the
choice of N-l is related to D-2 and smoothness of chaotic map.
