arXiv:2608. 17450v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Learning restricted Boltzmann machines (RBMs) is computationally challenging because it requires expectations whose exact evaluation is generally intractable.
arXiv:2607. 27077v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Energy-Based Models (EBMs) provide an interpretable framework for generative modeling of scientific data, but poor Markov Chain Monte Carlo mixing often limits their reliability.
Energy-Based Models (EBMs) provide an interpretable framework for generative modeling of scientific data, but poor Markov Chain Monte Carlo mixing often limits their reliability. We introduce a training algorithm based on Parallel Trajectory Tempering (PTT), which exploits the continuity of the optimization path to maintain equilibrium sampling throughout learning.

Efficient sampling of molecular systems at thermodynamic equilibrium is a hallmark challenge in statistical physics. This challenge has driven the development of Boltzmann Generators (BGs), which allow rapid generation of uncorrelated equilibrium samples by combining a generative model with exact likelihoods and an importance sampling correction.
arXiv:2505. 11635v2 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Many real-world tasks, from associative memory to symbolic reasoning, benefit from discrete, structured representations that standard continuous latent models can struggle to express.
arXiv:2607. 15682v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Sampling from an unnormalized Boltzmann density requires proposals that move probability mass globally while retaining enough path-probability information for statistical correction.
arXiv:2607. 00170v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Thermodynamic computing devices based on the Ising model show great promise for low-power AI inference and edge computing, but scalable methods for training large models for such hardware remain limited.
arXiv:2503. 14549v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: How can a cheap but biased sequential, finite-horizon sampler over a discrete space be corrected so that its terminal output follows a prescribed Gibbs distribution?
arXiv:2607. 08091v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The stationary distribution of reflected Brownian motion (RBM) plays an important role in the analysis of high-dimensional stochastic systems, yet closed-form solutions are known only for a few special cases.
arXiv:2606. 22984v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Efficient sampling of the Boltzmann distribution in frustrated spin glasses is central to statistical mechanics and combinatorial optimization.
Thermodynamic computing devices based on the Ising model show great promise for low-power AI inference and edge computing, but scalable methods for training large models for such hardware remain limited. Prior theory shows that the time-averaged behavior of high-temperature Gibbs-sampled Ising systems can implement feed-forward neural inference.
The stationary distribution of reflected Brownian motion (RBM) plays an important role in the analysis of high-dimensional stochastic systems, yet closed-form solutions are known only for a few special cases. Computing important performance metrics, such as tail probabilities, is even more intractable, despite their practical relevance.
