Static Structural Signatures of Nearly Jammed Disordered and Ordered Hard-Sphere Packings: Direct Correlation Function

Steven Atkinson, Frank H. Stillinger, Salvatore Torquato

Dynamical signatures are known to precede jamming in hard-particle systems, but static structural signatures have proven more elusive. The observation that compressing hard-particl…

Bayesian Hidden Physics Models: Uncertainty Quantification for Discovery of Nonlinear Partial Differential Operators from Data

Steven Atkinson

What do data tell us about physics-and what don't they tell us? There has been a surge of interest in using machine learning models to discover governing physical laws such as diff…

Bayesian task embedding for few-shot Bayesian optimization

Steven Atkinson, Sayan Ghosh, Natarajan Chennimalai-Kumar +2

We describe a method for Bayesian optimization by which one may incorporate data from multiple systems whose quantitative interrelationships are unknown a priori. All general (nonr…

Data-driven discovery of free-form governing differential equations

Steven Atkinson, Waad Subber, Liping Wang +3

We present a method of discovering governing differential equations from data without the need to specify a priori the terms to appear in the equation. The input to our method is a…

Structured Bayesian Gaussian process latent variable model: applications to data-driven dimensionality reduction and high-dimensional inversion

Steven Atkinson, Nicholas Zabaras

We introduce a methodology for nonlinear inverse problems using a variational Bayesian approach where the unknown quantity is a spatial field. A structured Bayesian Gaussian proces…

Critical slowing down and hyperuniformity on approach to jamming

Steven Atkinson, Ge Zhang, Adam B. Hopkins +1

Hyperuniformity characterizes a state of matter that is poised at a critical point at which density or volume-fraction fluctuations are anomalously suppressed at infinite wavelengt…

Structured Bayesian Gaussian process latent variable model

Steven Atkinson, Nicholas Zabaras

We introduce a Bayesian Gaussian process latent variable model that explicitly captures spatial correlations in data using a parameterized spatial kernel and leveraging structure-e…
