Spin-block determinants

Penguin learning project

The project uses 342 complete Palmer penguin records: 240 training-pool and 102 held-out rows. The selected training rows determine feature scaling and model parameters. Source CSV

This project trains weights with softmax, unlike the homepage lab, which uses nearest species averages. Same penguin measurements; different classification methods. Predictions can differ.

Quantum models · Describe wavefunctions, particle coordinates and energy relations.

PDE and quantum models are not operations on these penguin measurements.

Consider this concept alongside the project; its source assumptions may differ. These observations do not prove a theorem.

Input: 12 × 2; Held-out evaluation: 102 · #58 · 40.6 mm, 193 mm. Known answer: Adélie; Prediction: Adélie · [≈0.7383, ≈0.2444, ≈0.01737].

Used in these source sections: 8.2 Equations as guides

The model multiplies one determinant for each spin block. Swapping two columns of one block reverses its sign.

These expressions specify the inverse or quantum model.

Source formula example

det⁡((φi(rj))i,j=1n+)⋅det⁡((φi(rj))i,j=n++1n)\det\left(\left(\varphi_{i}(r_{j})\right)_{i,j=1}^{n_{+}}\right)\cdot\det\left(\left(\varphi_{i}(r_{j})\right)_{i,j=n_{+}+1}^{n}\right)

illustration · The invented finite inputs illustrate this expression. They do not prove a general identity, bound, or existence claim.

Symbols

Source formula example

This source example uses its own inputs and assumptions. Editing it does not change the project.

Edit a value or the code, then run the example. This is a finite demonstration, not a proof of the paper’s theorem.

This example’s data flow

You choose

  • input.x = 2

Technical statement

The invented first block is 2 by 2 and the second is 1 by 1. Actual entries are orbital values at particle positions.
