Bedaque, 1, ∗ Hersh Kumar, 1,† and Andy Sheng 1,‡  \n1 Department of Physics, University of Maryland, College Park, MD 20742  \nWe apply a variational Ansatz based on neural networks to the problem of spin-~~1~~2 fermions in a harmonic trap interacting through a short distance potential. We showed that standard machine learning techniques lead to a quick convergence to the ground state, especially in weakly coupled cases. Higher couplings can be handled efficiently by increasing the strength of interactions during“training”.  \narXiv :2410 . 17383v1 [nucl-th] 22 Oct 2024  \nI. INTRODUCTION  \nIn recent years, there has been a noteworthy and promising convergence between the methods of machine learning and quantum many-body physics. The central idea has been the recognition of a natural analogy between the training of neural networks and Variational Quantum Monte Carlo methods (VQMC) . This connection has been explored both in the condensed matter/quantum chemistry context where the long-range Coulomb force is relevant (for a small sample see references [1–4]) and in the nuclear/atomic trap case where short-range forces are of interest [5–13] . Common uses of machine learning techniques are based on creating an artificial neural network with some specific architecture and choosing the parameters of this network in order to accomplish some task of interest. In the unsupervised learning approach, the network parameters are tuned in order to minimize a “cost function” — a function of the network parameters whose value correlates with the skill in that particular task. By numerically minimizing the cost function by varying the network parameters (“training” the network) one arrives at a network with some amount of skill in that task. Similarly, in the VQMC method, one parameterizes the ground state of a system and minimizes the energy in relation to these parameters. The wave function  \n\n| Unsupervised Machine learning | Variational\u003Cbr>Monte Carlo |\n| --- | --- |\n\n\n| cost function | energy |\n| --- | --- |\n| neural network | wave function |\n| weights and biases | wave function parameters |\n\nTABLE I: Analogy between unsupervised machine learning and Variational Monte Carlo.  \n∗ [bedaque@umd.edu](bedaque@umd.edu)[ ](bedaque@umd.edu)† [hekumar@umd.edu](hekumar@umd.edu)[ ](hekumar@umd.edu)‡ [asheng@umd.edu](asheng@umd.edu)  \nwith the smallest energy within that parameterized family is the best estimate of the ground state (it is actually a rigorous upper bound on the exact value) . The analogy then is that the energy plays the role of cost function and the network is the family of parameterized wave functions (see Table I) .  \nThe “Monte Carlo” part of VQMC refers to the fact that the energies and their gradients cannot be computed analytically for many-particle systems with complicated wave functions. Instead, they are estimated stochastically by Monte Carlo methods. The stochastic noise present in the final evaluation of the energy is kept to a minimum by using a long Monte Carlo chain; the noise in the gradient does not need to be very small. In fact, some stochastic noise is useful in order to avoid getting trapped in local minima of the energy during training [14] . The great advantage of framing VQMC in the machine learning language is to use a number of tricks and techniques used in that field so that training large systems, with wave functions parameterized by many (sometimes millions of) parameters, can be readily accomplished on standard laptops.  \nIn this work, we focus on a class of problems permeating several fields of Physics: systems comprised of multiple fermions interacting through short-range potentials. These systems, while conceptually simple, pose significant computational challenges due to the exponential growth of the Hilbert space with particle number and a serious sign problem in some Monte Carlo approaches.
