Machine learning is becoming an essential part of a physicist’s toolkit. How should new students learn to use it? When Radha Mastandrea started her undergraduate physics program at MIT in 2015, she ...

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 ...

Recent developments in machine learning techniques have been supported by the continuous increase in availability of high-performance computational resources and data. While large volumes of data are ...

As artificial intelligence explodes in popularity, two of its pioneers have nabbed the 2024 Nobel Prize in physics. The prize surprised many, as these developments are typically associated with ...

Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory published a new paper last week, marking significant results from the lab’s artificial intelligence research. In the paper, published in Nature Communications, PPPL ...

John Hopfield and Geoffrey Hinton won the Nobel Prize in Physics for their foundational work in artificial intelligence. Hinton, known as the godfather of AI, is a dual citizen of Canada and Britain, ...

In developing drugs using a platform that joins physics with machine learning, Schrödinger sees more than a passing resemblance to the studio whose Toy Story and other computer-generated movies ...

Physics may seem like its own world, but different sectors using machine learning are all part of the same universe. In 2017, Savannah Thais attended the NeurIPS machine-learning conference in Long ...

The human brain, with its billions of interconnected neurons giving rise to consciousness, is generally considered the most powerful and flexible computer in the known universe. Yet for decades ...
