Abstract: We apply transfer learning (TL) to construct data-driven models of inclusive electron-nucleus cross sections. Starting from an ensemble of deep neural networks pretrained on \(^{12}\)C data, we fine-tune the models separately for \(^{3}\)He, \(^{6}\)Li, \(^{16}\)O, \(^{27}\)Al, \(^{40}\)Ca, and \(^{56}\)Fe. The resulting models improve for all targets, marginally so for oxygen, where the carbon baseline is already adequate, although their predictive robustness depends on the amount, coverage, and precision of the available target data. We systematically study how model performance depends on the number of fine-tuned layers, on the fraction and selection of the training data, and on the overlap between the source and target kinematic domains. The layer-wise analysis shows that oxygen requires only shallow adaptation, whereas helium, calcium, and iron require substantially deeper fine-tuning. Lithium represents the least robust case because of its limited dataset, while aluminum demonstrates a strong sensitivity to a small subset of highly constraining measurements. For selected kinematic configurations outside the coverage of the carbon training data, the adapted models remain consistent with the measurements within their estimated uncertainties. Finally, we compare the resulting predictions with those of the phenomenological F1F2 model.

It is widely believed that a neural network can fit a training set containing at least as many samples as it has parameters. In practice, however, we only find solutions via our training procedure, including the gradient and regularizers, limiting flexibility.

Kalman Filter for Online Classification of Non-Stationary Data [101.26838049872651]
In Online Continual Learning (OCL) a learning system receives a stream of data and sequentially performs prediction and training steps. We introduce a probabilistic Bayesian online learning model by using a neural representation and a state space model over the linear predictor weights. In experiments in multi-class classification we demonstrate the predictive ability of the model and its flexibility to capture non-stationarity.

Electronic-structure properties from atom-centered predictions of the electron density [0.0]
electron density of a molecule or material has recently received major attention as a target quantity of machine-learning models. We propose a gradient-based approach to minimize the loss function of the regression problem in an optimized and highly sparse feature space. We show that starting from the predicted density a single Kohn-Sham diagonalization step can be performed to access total energy components that carry an error of just 0.1 meV/atom.

gradient-based explanation algorithms provide perceptually-aligned explanations. We show that the more a feature attribution is aligned with the tangent space of the data, the more perceptually-aligned it tends to be. We suggest that explanation algorithms should actively strive to align their explanations with the data manifold.

Supplementation of deep neural networks with simplified physics-based features to increase model prediction accuracy [0.0]
supplemental physics-based features are introduced into a deep neural network (DNN) to improve predictive models for STEM applications. These additional features are injected into various single and multiple layers, and trained with four different dataset sizes. When physics-enhanced data is injected into multiple layers, reductions in error from 33.2% to 19.6%, 34.9% to 19.9%, 35.8% to 22.4%, and 43.0% to 28.4% are achieved for training dataset sizes of 261, 117, 60, and 30, respectively.
