866. Active deep learning methods for regression

Theoretical Physics / Physique théorique (DTP-DPT)

Poster Competition (Graduate Student) / Compétition affiches (Étudiant(e) 2e ou 3e cycle)

Active learning (AL) is under-researched for regression problems, with a majority of publications focusing on classification tasks. There is also a need for research concerning AL methods for deep learning. These methods are often approximations by necessity, as AL requires the models to not only predict current performance, but also changes in future performance. Deep learning methods do not...

669. Machine Learning Frameworks for Magnetohydrodynamics: Integrating Physics-Informed and Data-Driven Methods

Ms Malavika Nair (Western University)

Poster Competition (Undergraduate Student) / Compétition affiches (Étudiant(e) du 1er cycle)

The gravitational collapse of magnetized astrophysical fluids underlies a wide range of phenomena, from protostellar formation to large-scale structure evolution. These systems are governed by magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations, a nonlinear and tightly coupled set of partial differential equations that pose significant challenges for traditional numerical solvers. High-resolution...

581. Temporal Entanglement: Two Particles or Two Observation Points?

Poster (Non-Student) / Affiche (Non-étudiant(e))

In a novel relational time model, a single temporal node maps multiple spatial points onto indeterminate locations. One observer’s measurement selects a deterministic spatial outcome, forming a bound relational state; a second observer independently does the same at the same temporal anchor.

Correlations arise not from particle interactions but from referencing the same relational instant...

769. Testing ER = EPR with Hydrogen

Irfan Javed (University of New Brunswick)

Theoretical Physics / Physique théorique (DTP-DPT)

Poster Competition (Graduate Student) / Compétition affiches (Étudiant(e) 2e ou 3e cycle)

According to the ER = EPR conjecture, entangled particles are connected by quantum wormholes. Under the assumption that some of the electric field surrounding an entangled charged particle leaks into the wormhole, we show that this effect will modify the hyperfine structure of the Hydrogen atom. In addition, if the quantum wormholes are nontraversable, this will also lead to a nonzero total...

763. Thermodynamics of Polyhedral Spin Ice

Theoretical Physics / Physique théorique (DTP-DPT)

Poster not-in-competition (Undergraduate Student) / Affiche non-compétitive (Étudiant(e) du 1er cycle)

Artificial spin ices (ASIs) are nanostructured arrays of ferromagnetic elements designed to study frustration and emergent phenomena. ASI studies have largely been confined to two-dimensional lattice geometries. A recent study has extended ASIs to three dimensions, with a buckyball-shaped arrangement of nanomagnets. Inspired by this study, we investigate ASIs in various polyhedral geometries:...
