On scientific understanding with artificial intelligence

Mario Krenn, Robert Pollice, Si Yue Guo +9

Imagine an oracle that correctly predicts the outcome of every particle physics experiment, the products of every chemical reaction, or the function of every protein. Such an oracl…

On data and dimension in chemistry -- irreversibility, concealment and emergent conservation laws

Alex Blokhuis, Martijn van Kuppeveld, Daan van de Weem +1

Chemical systems are interpreted through the species they contain and the reactions they may undergo, i.e., their chemical reaction network (CRN). In spite of their central importa…

Emergent conserved quantities via irreversibility

Alex Blokhuis, Martijn van Kuppeveld, Daan van de Weem +1

Conserved quantities increasingly underpin the inference of physical models. Recently new conserved quantities have been found in this context, that currently lack an interpretatio…
