Researchers use statistical physics and "toy models" to explain how neural networks avoid overfitting and stabilize learning in high-dimensional spaces.

Many dynamic processes can be described mathematically with the aid of stochastic partial differential equations. Scientists have found a new method which helps to solve a certain class of such ...

A new study introduces choice engineering—a powerful new way to guide decisions using math instead of guesswork. By applying carefully designed mathematical models, researchers found they could ...
