Plans for the week April 24-28

Dear all, welcome back to a new exciting week with FYS4411/9411. This week we will go through the nitty gritty details (mathematical ones) for setting up a so-called deep generative neural network using so-called Boltzmann machines. The slides in the form of a jupyter-notebook at https://github.com/CompPhysics/ComputationalPhysics2/blob/gh-pages/doc/pub/week14/ipynb/week14.ipynb will form the basis of the lecture. The lecture will mainly be a classical whiteboard one (almost like an old-fashioned blackboard one) where we discuss the basic details. The week thereafter we will discuss how to implement a neural network for solving the same problem as discuss with Boltzmann machines. The week of May 1-5 will also be our last regular lecture week. The weeks thereafter will be dedicated to a summary of what has been done and just project work.

Best wishes to you all,

Morten and ?yvind
