Improving Deep Learning With a Little Help From Physics
...as “physics-guided deep learning,” having spent years incorporating our knowledge of physics into artificial neural networks. The work has not only introduced novel techniques for building and training these systems,...
How a Biofilm’s Strange Shape Emerges From Cellular Geometry
...this emergence that attracted the biophysicist Peter Yunker to the microbial structures. Trained in soft matter physics — the study of materials that can be structurally altered — he is...
Can Quantum Gravity Be Created in the Lab?
...is one of the biggest unresolved and challenging problems in physics, as it seeks to reconcile quantum mechanics, which governs the microscopic world, and general relativity, which describes the macroscopic...
Why Everything in the Universe Turns More Complex
...In other words, in this view there’s a kind of physics of evolution — and it’s a kind of physics we know about already. The Biosphere Creates Its Own Possibilities...
How Did Multicellular Life Evolve?
...biology with John Tyler Bonner. RATCLIFF: That’s really cool. STROGATZ: He was a very sweet man too. And you know what else, he had a lot of interest in physics,...
Is Dark Energy Getting Weaker? New Evidence Strengthens the Case.
...finding, presented today at the Global Physics Summit in Anaheim, California, aligns with that of a second group of cosmologists, the 400-strong Dark Energy Survey (DES). Having also observed a...
‘Next-Level’ Chaos Traces the True Limit of Predictability
...mathematics and computer science. But he never forgot the pinball machine, and how computer science put limits on the machine’s physics. He wondered whether undecidability touched any physics problems that...
The Physicist Working to Build Science-Literate AI
By training machine learning models with examples of basic science, Miles Cranmer hopes to push the pace of scientific discovery forward. Physics dazzled Miles Cranmer from an early age. His...
How Hans Bethe Stumbled Upon Perfect Quantum Theories
...1980s. Now few areas of physics remain untouched by Bethe’s nearly century-old insight. “Its importance has continued growing to this day,” said Charlotte Kristjansen, a professor at the Niels Bohr...
