Many-body mobility edges in one and two dimensions revealed by convolutional neural networks
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We adapt a machine-learning approach to study the many-body localization transition in interacting fermionic systems on disordered one-dimensional (1D) and two-dimensional (2D) lattices. We perform supervised training of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) using labeled many-body wave functions at weak and strong disorder. In these limits, the average validation accuracy of the trained CNNs exceeds 99.95%. We use the disorder-averaged predictions of the CNNs to generate energy-resolved phase diagrams, which exhibit many-body mobility edges. We provide finite-size estimates of the critical disorder strengths at ${W}_{c}\ensuremath{\sim}2.8$ and 9.8 for 1D and 2D systems of 16 sites, respectively. Our results agree with the analysis of energy-level statistics and inverse participation ratio. By examining the convolutional layer, we unveil its feature extraction mechanism which highlights the pronounced peaks in localized many-body wave functions while rendering delocalized wave functions nearly featureless.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
