Plans for the week of March 31-April 4
Dear all, welcome back and we hope all is well after heroic efforts with project 1.
This week we plan to start discussions of project 2 and our plans are
-
Discussions of various variants of project 2
-
Depending on your interests, we will start discussing the path about Neural Networks and Boltzmann Machines, with an introduction to Boltzmann machines
You find the lecture notes at https://github.com/CompPhysics/ComputationalPhysics2/blob/gh-pages/doc/pub/week11/ipynb/week11.ipynb
Similarly, all four variants of project 2 are listed at https://github.com/CompPhysics/ComputationalPhysics2/tree/gh-pages/doc/Projects/2025/Project2
During our lectures we will mainly discuss the variants with Boltzmann machines and how to simulate Fermionic systems. If we get time, during the last lectures this semester we will discuss diffusion Monte Carlo methods. If there is an interest, we can design a project based on a continuation of project 1, but using diffusion MC methods.
See you soon and best wishes,
Morten
