Abstract
In this paper we provide a novel approach to the analysis of kinetic models for label switching, which are used for particle systems that can randomly switch between gradient flows in different energy landscapes. Besides problems in biology and physics, we also demonstrate that stochastic gradient descent, the most popular technique in machine learning, can be understood in this setting, when considering a time-continuous variant.Our analysis is focusing on the case of evolution in a collection of external potentials, for which we provide analytical and numerical results about the evolution as well as the stationary problem.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
