Many time series exhibit dynamics over vastly different time scales. The standard way to capture this behavior is to assume
that the slow dynamics are a“trend”, to de-trend the data, and then to model the fast dynamics. However, for nonlinear dynamical
systems this is generally insufficient. In this paper we describe a new method, utilizing two distinct nonlinear modeling
architectures to capture both fast and slow dynamics. Slow dynamics are modeled with the method of analogues, and fast dynamics
with a deterministic radial basis function network. When combined the resulting model out-performs either individual system.
