Abstract

Restricted Boltzmann machines (RBMs) are well-known tools used in machine learning to learn probability distribution functions from data. We analyze RBMs with scalar fields on the nodes from the perspective of lattice field theory. Starting with the simplest case of Gaussian fields, we show that the...
