OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Deep learning for molecular physics
There has been a surge of interest in machine learning in the past few years, and deep learning techniques are more and more integrated into
the way we do quantitative science. A particularly exciting case for deep learning is molecular physics, where some of the “superpowers” of
machine learning can make a real difference in addressing hard and fundamental computational problems – on the other hand the rigorous
physical footing of these problems guides us in how to pose the learning problem and making the design decisions for the learning architecture.
In this lecture I will review some of our recent contributions in marrying deep learning with statistical mechanics, rare-event sampling
and quantum mechanics.
