We study the first-order flocking transition of birds flying in low-visibility conditions by employing three different representative types of neural network (NN) based machine learning architectures that are trained via either an unsupervised learning approach called learning by confusion or a widely used supervised learning approach. We find that after the training via either the unsupervised learning approach or the supervised learning one, all of these three different representative types of NNs, namely, the fully-connected NN, the convolutional NN, and the residual NN, are able to successfully identify the first-order flocking transition point of this nonequilibrium many-body system. This indicates that NN based machine learning can be employed as a promising generic tool to investigate rich physics in scenarios associated to first-order phase transitions and nonequilibrium many-body systems.

Determining the phase diagram of systems consisting of smaller subsystems connected via a tunable coupling is a challenging task relevant for a variety of physical settings. A general question is whether new phases, not present in the uncoupled limit , may arise. We use machine learning to study layered spin models, in which the spin variables constituting each of the uncoupled systems (to which we refer as layers) are coupled to each other via an interlayer coupling. In such systems, in general, composite order parameters involving spins of different layers may emerge as a consequence of the interlayer coupling. We focus on the layered Ising and Ashkin-Teller models as a paradigmatic case study, determining their phase diagram via the application of a machine learning algorithm to the Monte Carlo data. Remarkably our technique is able to correctly characterize all the system phases also in the case of hidden order parameters, i.e., order parameters whose expression in terms of the microscopic configurations would require additional preprocessing of the data fed to the algorithm. We correctly retrieve the three known phases of the Ashkin-Teller model with ferromagnetic couplings, including the phase described by a composite order parameter. For the bilayer and trilayer Ising models the phases we find are only the ferromagnetic and the paramagnetic ones. Within the approach we introduce, owing to the construction of convolutional neural networks, naturally suitable for layered image-like data with arbitrary number of layers, no preprocessing of the Monte Carlo data is needed, also with regard to its spatial structure. The physical meaning of our results is discussed and compared with analytical data, where available. Yet, the method can be used without any a priori knowledge of the phases one seeks to find and can be applied to other models and structures.

Recurrent neural networks (RNN) are powerful tools to explain how attractors may emerge from noisy, high-dimensional dynamics. We study here how to learn the ~N^(2) pairwise interactions in a RNN with N neurons to embed L manifolds of dimension D << N. We show that the capacity, i.e. the maximal ratio L/N, decreases as |log(epsilon)|^(-D), where epsilon is the error on the position encoded by the neural activity along each manifold. Hence, RNN are flexible memory devices capable of storing a large number of manifolds at high spatial resolution. Our results rely on a combination of analytical tools from statistical mechanics and random matrix theory, extending Gardners classical theory of learning to the case of patterns with strong spatial correlations.
Topological materials discovery has emerged as an important frontier in condensed matter physics. Recent theoretical approaches based on symmetry indicators and topological quantum chemistry have been used to identify thousands of candidate topologic al materials, yet experimental determination of materials topology often poses significant technical challenges. X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) is a widely-used materials characterization technique sensitive to atoms local symmetry and chemical environment; thus, it may encode signatures of materials topology, though indirectly. In this work, we show that XAS can potentially uncover materials topology when augmented by machine learning. By labelling computed X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) spectra of over 16,000 inorganic materials with their topological class, we establish a machine learning-based classifier of topology with XANES spectral inputs. Our classifier correctly predicts 81% of topological and 80% of trivial cases, and can achieve 90% and higher accuracy for materials containing certain elements. Given the simplicity of the XAS setup and its compatibility with multimodal sample environments, the proposed machine learning-empowered XAS topological indicator has the potential to discover broader categories of topological materials, such as non-cleavable compounds and amorphous materials. It can also inform a variety of field-driven phenomena in situ, such as magnetic field-driven topological phase transitions.
We propose an optimization method of mutual learning which converges into the identical state of optimum ensemble learning within the framework of on-line learning, and have analyzed its asymptotic property through the statistical mechanics method.Th e proposed model consists of two learning steps: two students independently learn from a teacher, and then the students learn from each other through the mutual learning. In mutual learning, students learn from each other and the generalization error is improved even if the teacher has not taken part in the mutual learning. However, in the case of different initial overlaps(direction cosine) between teacher and students, a student with a larger initial overlap tends to have a larger generalization error than that of before the mutual learning. To overcome this problem, our proposed optimization method of mutual learning optimizes the step sizes of two students to minimize the asymptotic property of the generalization error. Consequently, the optimized mutual learning converges to a generalization error identical to that of the optimal ensemble learning. In addition, we show the relationship between the optimum step size of the mutual learning and the integration mechanism of the ensemble learning.
We present a deep reinforcement learning framework where a machine agent is trained to search for a policy to generate a ground state for the square ice model by exploring the physical environment. After training, the agent is capable of proposing a sequence of local moves to achieve the goal. Analysis of the trained policy and the state value function indicates that the ice rule and loop-closing condition are learned without prior knowledge. We test the trained policy as a sampler in the Markov chain Monte Carlo and benchmark against the baseline loop algorithm. This framework can be generalized to other models with topological constraints where generation of constraint-preserving states is difficult.
