AI Is Discovering Its Own 'Fundamental' Physics And Scientists Are Baffled
To do this, Lipson and colleagues have designed a machine learning algorithm capable of studying physical phenomena by "watching" videos, such as the swing of a double pendulum or the flicker of a flame, and producing the number of variables needed to explain the action. For known systems, the algorithm was able to predict the correct number of variables within 1 value (e.g. The findings were published last week in a study titled "Automated discovery of fundamental variables hidden in experimental data" in the journal Nature Computational Science.
