DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/MPML/60/">Eq
 uivariant machine learning structure like classical physics</a>\nby Soleda
 d Villar (Mathematical Institute for Data Science at Johns Hopkins Univers
 ity) as part of Mathematics\, Physics and Machine Learning (IST\, Lisbon)\
 n\n\nAbstract\nThere has been enormous progress in the last few years in d
 esigning neural networks that respect the fundamental symmetries and coord
 inate freedoms of physical law. Some of these frameworks make use of irred
 ucible representations\, some make use of high-order tensor objects\, and 
 some apply symmetry-enforcing constraints. Different physical laws obey di
 fferent combinations of fundamental symmetries\, but a large fraction (pos
 sibly all) of classical physics is equivariant to translation\, rotation\,
  reflection (parity)\, boost (relativity)\, and permutations. Here we show
  that it is simple to parameterize universally approximating polynomial fu
 nctions that are equivariant under these symmetries\, or under the Euclide
 an\, Lorentz\, and Poincare groups\, at any dimensionality d. The key obse
 rvation is that nonlinear O(d)-equivariant (and related-group-equivariant)
  functions can be expressed in terms of a lightweight collection of scalar
 s---scalar products and scalar contractions of the scalar\, vector\, and t
 ensor inputs. These results demonstrate theoretically that gauge-invariant
  deep learning models for classical physics with good scaling for large pr
 oblems are feasible right now.\n
