Abstract

The transition to Euclidean space and the discretization of quantum field theories on spatial or space-time lattices opens up the opportunity to investigate probabilistic machine learning within quantum field theory. Here, we will discuss how discretized Euclidean field theories, such as the ϕ4 latt...

Here, we will discuss how discretized Euclidean field theories, such as the ϕ4 lattice field theory on a square lattice, are mathematically equivalent to Markov fields, a notable class of probabilistic graphical models with applications in a variety of research areas, including machine learning. The results are established based on the Hammersley-Clifford theorem.
