Statistical physics and message passing inference represent two interwoven strands of modern quantitative research. While statistical physics examines how macroscopic phenomena emerge from the ...

John Hopfield and Geoffrey Hinton were awarded the 2024 Nobel Prize in physics on Tuesday for their contributions to machine learning. Their research, which draws from statistical physics, helped ...

Statistical physics of spin systems provides a versatile framework for understanding phase transitions and critical phenomena by modelling collections of interacting discrete variables, or “spins”, ...

Researchers from The University of New Mexico and Los Alamos National Laboratory have developed a novel computational framework that addresses a longstanding challenge in statistical physics.

In a recent paper, SFI Professor David Wolpert, SFI Fractal Faculty member Carlo Rovelli, and physicist Jordan Scharnhorst ...

Artificial neural networks mimic human brains, but the technology has its roots in physics. If your jaw dropped as you watched the latest AI-generated video, your bank balance was saved from criminals ...

A research team led by Prof. PAN Ding, Associate Professor from the Departments of Physics and Chemistry, and Dr. LI Shuo-Hui, Research Assistant Professor from the Department of Physics at the Hong ...

Richard Easther and Frank Wang argue that a “Newton first” approach to undergraduate physics teaching can give students a better insight than focusing solely on “modern physics” The whole story Topics ...

Statistical physicists attempted to explain the brain’s functionality using Excitation-Inhibition balance similarly to magnetic models, yet the theory was experimentally disproven and now, a decade ...
