Machine learning for discovering laws of nature
- AI4CE

Based on Darwin's natural selection, we developed "machine scientists" to discover the laws of nature by learning from raw data. "Machine scientists" construct physical theories by applying a logic tree (state Decision Tree) and a value tree (observation Function Tree); the logical tree determines the state of the entity, and the value tree determines the absolute value between the two observations of the entity. A logic Tree and a value tree together can reconstruct an entity's trajectory and make predictions about its future outcomes. Our proposed algorithmic model has an emphasis on machine learning - where "machine scientists" builds up its experience by being rewarded or punished for each decision they make - eventually leading to rediscovering Newton's equation (classical physics) and the Born's rule (quantum mechanics).
