Spike Recovery from Large Random Tensors with Application to Machine Learning

MBZUAI · Invalid Date

This talk discusses the asymptotic study of large asymmetric spiked tensor models. It explores connections between these models and equivalent random matrices constructed through contractions of the original tensor. Mohamed El Amine Seddik, currently a senior researcher at TII in Abu Dhabi, presented the work. Why it matters: The research provides theoretical foundations relevant to machine learning algorithms that leverage low-rank tensor structures, potentially impacting AI research and applications in the region.

Generative models, manifolds and symmetries: From QFT to molecules

MBZUAI · Invalid Date

A DeepMind researcher presented work on incorporating symmetries into machine learning models, with applications to lattice-QCD and molecular dynamics. The work includes permutation and translation-invariant normalizing flows for free-energy estimation in molecular dynamics. They also presented U(N) and SU(N) Gauge-equivariant normalizing flows for pure Gauge simulations and its extensions to incorporate fermions in lattice-QCD. Why it matters: Applying symmetry principles to generative models could improve AI's ability to model complex physical systems relevant to materials science and other fields in the region.
