Summary
- What is new: Discussion on achieving rigor in natural sciences using machine learning, introducing conjecture generation and verification by reinforcement learning, and new approaches inspired by neural network theory.
- Why this is important: Machine learning in natural sciences is powerful but often lacks rigor and is seen as a blackbox, problematic for fields that value understanding and precision.
- What the research proposes: Utilizing machine learning for conjecture generation and verification by reinforcement learning in theoretical physics and pure mathematics, and exploring new theories inspired by machine learning.
- Results: Applications in areas like string theory and the smooth 4d Poincaré conjecture, and the introduction of theories motivated by neural networks that could revamp understanding in field theory and Riemannian metric flows.
