Abstract
SIAM Review, Volume 67, Issue 2, Page 406-408, May 2025. The 2024 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to John Hopfield and Geoffrey Hinton for their work on artificial intelligence and machine learning. The award has been somewhat controversial in the physics community and prompted some heated debates, since the only apparent use of physics is the Boltzmann distribution in the sampling function of the Boltzmann machine [D. H. Ackley, G. E. Hinton, and T. J. Sejnowski, Cog. Sci., 9 (1985), pp. 147–169]. If we leave aside this debate for the time being, it is undeniable that artificial intelligence and machine learning have had a transformative effect on various areas of science and technology.
SIAM评论,第67卷,第2期,第406-408页,2025年5月。2024年诺贝尔物理学奖授予约翰·霍普菲尔德和杰弗里·辛顿,以表彰他们在人工智能和机器学习方面的贡献。该奖项在物理界引起了一些争议,并引发了一些激烈的争论,因为物理学的唯一明显用途是玻尔兹曼机抽样函数中的玻尔兹曼分布[D]。H. Ackley, G. E. Hinton, T. J. Sejnowski, Cog。科学。, 9(1985),第147-169页]。如果我们暂时抛开这个争论,不可否认的是,人工智能和机器学习已经对各个科学技术领域产生了变革性的影响。
期刊介绍:
Survey and Review feature papers that provide an integrative and current viewpoint on important topics in applied or computational mathematics and scientific computing. These papers aim to offer a comprehensive perspective on the subject matter.
Research Spotlights publish concise research papers in applied and computational mathematics that are of interest to a wide range of readers in SIAM Review. The papers in this section present innovative ideas that are clearly explained and motivated. They stand out from regular publications in specific SIAM journals due to their accessibility and potential for widespread and long-lasting influence.
