• Abstract: Despite the widespread use and success of machine-learning techniques for detecting phase transitions from data, their working principle and fundamental limits remain elusive. Here, we explain the inner workings and identify potential failure modes of these techniques by rooting popular machine-learning indicators of phase transitions in information-theoretic concepts. Using tools from information geometry, we prove that several machine-learning indicators of phase transitions approximate the square root of the system's (quantum) Fisher information from below -- a quantity that is known to indicate phase transitions but is often difficult to compute from data. We numerically demonstrate the quality of these bounds for phase transitions in classical and quantum systems.

  We introduce a machine learning approach to determine the transition dynamics of silicon atoms on a single layer of carbon atoms. The data samples are processed and filtered to produce symbolic representations, which we use to train a neural network to predict transition probabilities. These learned transition dynamics are then leveraged to guide a single silicon atom throughout the lattice to pre-determined target destinations.

  Measurement-induced entanglement phase transitions in monitored quantum systems are a striking example. We propose a neural network decoder to determine the state of the reference qubits conditioned on the measurement outcomes. We show that the entanglement phase transition manifests itself as a stark change in the learnability of the decoder function.
