Motivated by the success in many different fields of science and engineering, such as image recognition and analysis of big data in biology, machine learning has recently come to prominence in condensed matter physics – in particular, for the purpose of classification and detection of phase transitions...
Artificial intelligence, a branch of computer science that is transforming scientific inquiry and industry, could now speed the development of safe, clean and virtually limitless fusion energy for generating electricity. A major step in this direction is under way at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) and Princeton University, where a team of scientists working with a Harvard graduate student...
