WKB theory of large deviations in stochastic populations

TL;DR: In this article, the authors review recent progress in applying different variants of dissipative WKB approximation (after Wentzel, Kramers and Brillouin) to this class of problems.
Journal ArticleDOI

Unreasonable Effectiveness of Learning Neural Networks: From Accessible States and Robust Ensembles to Basic Algorithmic Schemes

TL;DR: It is shown that there are regions of the optimization landscape that are both robust and accessible and that their existence is crucial to achieve good performance on a class of particularly difficult learning problems, and an explanation of this good performance is proposed in terms of a nonequilibrium statistical physics framework.

Fractional Diffusion Equations and Anomalous Diffusion

TL;DR: Anomalous diffusion has been detected in a wide variety of scenarios, from fractal media, systems with memory, transport processes in porous media, to fluctuations of financial markets, tumour growth, and complex fluids.

Single-Particle Diffusion Characterization by Deep Learning

TL;DR: A neural network is implemented to classify single-particle trajectories by diffusion type: Brownian motion, fractional BrownianMotion and continuous time random walk, and the applicability of the network architecture for estimating the Hurst exponent for fractionalBrownian motion and the diffusion coefficient for Brownianmotion on both simulated and experimental data is demonstrated.

Uncertainty relations in stochastic processes: An information inequality approach

TL;DR: It is found that the thermodynamic uncertainty relation is a particular case of the Cramér-Rao inequality, in which the Fisher information is the total entropy production, and the stochastictotal entropy production is the only quantity that can attain equality in the thermodynamics uncertainty relation.

Self-Organization in Cells II: Reaction-Diffusion Models

TL;DR: This chapter focuses on the role of active processes such as polymerization on the self-organization of cytoskeletal structures and the interplay between diffusion and nonlinear chemical reactions in this area.

Self-Organization in Cells I: Active Processes

TL;DR: In order to address questions about how cellular and subcellular structures are formed and maintained given their particular molecular components, the theory of self-organizing non-equilibrium systems is considered.
