Mathematical modelling — the ability to translate observations (experimental or otherwise) using mathematical theories and laws of physics to represent important features from a real-world problem. This variable is independent of space and time, and, in many cases, denotes the physical units associated with the dynamical system.

Across Peru, thousands of people do not have access to clean water or efficient transport links. He is investigating the connection between poor transport links and social inequality, and bringing sanitation to a remote community in the Andes. Access to water and sanitation are fundamental human rights. Published: June 30, 2022.

Should we think of it essentially as a practical tool for accessing existing methods, or does it provide something fundamentally new for science? My goal here is to explore and assess what AI can and can’t be expected to do in science. Imagine we’re studying some physical process. So how does AI stack up?

But by the end of the 1800s, with the existence of molecules increasingly firmly established, the Second Law began to often be treated as an almost-mathematically-proven necessary law of physics. The theory of heat will hereafter form one of the most important branches of general physics.

Indeed, so confident was he of his programming prowess that he became convinced that he should in effect be able to write a program for the universe—and make all of physics into a programming problem. It didn’t help that his knowledge of physics was at best spotty (and, for example, I don’t think he ever really learned calculus).

And there was something else: the computer system I’d built was a language that I’d realized (in a nod to my experience with reductionist physical science) would be the most powerful if it could be based on principles and primitives that were as minimal as possible. Mathematical physics. But was it really that complex?

As a high school student, Winnie had a passion for both math and the social sciences. Her teachers pushed her into the “easier” path of social sciences rather than encourage her interest in STEM subjects. And throughout my sort of high school experience, I’d been, you know, passionate about social sciences.
