Quantum computing for finance
https://www.nature.com/articles/s42254-023-00603-1

Quantum computers are expected to surpass the computational capabilities of classical computers and have a transformative impact on numerous industry sectors. We present a comprehensive summary of the state of the art of quantum computing for financial applications, with particular emphasis on stochastic modelling, optimization and machine learning. This Review is aimed at physicists, so it outlines the classical techniques used by the financial industry and discusses the potential advantages and limitations of quantum techniques. Finally, we look at the challenges that physicists could help tackle

Stanford CS229: Machine Learning I Spring 2022
This course provides a broad introduction to machine learning and statistical pattern recognition. Topics include: supervised learning (generative/discriminative learning, parametric/non-parametric learning, neural networks, support vector machines); unsupervised learning (clustering, dimensionality reduction, kernel methods); learning theory (bias/variance tradeoffs, practical advice); reinforcement learning and adaptive control. The course will also discuss recent applications of machine learning, such as to robotic control, data mining, autonomous navigation, bioinformatics, speech recognition, and text and web data processing.

Physicists and the first computing revolution
https://www.nature.com/articles/s42254-023-00614-y

The noteworthy role physicists played in the computing revolutions triggered by the invention of the transistor, or the World Wide Web, is well known. But less so is their influential part in the early days of computing. This is the account of how physics and computing started a long-lasting affair — a story with unexpected parallels with the current revolution in AI.

بحران در فیزیک با شان کرول
دنیای این روزهای علم، قسمت ۳

شان کرول پادکست معروفی داره که معمولا با آدم‌های سرشناس حوزه‌های مختلف علم صحبت می‌کنه. به تازگی در یک قسمت نسبتا طولانی چهار ساعته بدون مهمان خاصی، راجع به بحران در فیزیک حرف زده. ممکنه این روزها ببینید یا بشنوید که بحرانی در فیزیک هست یا سرعت رشد فیزیک در حال کاهشه. خصوصا اگه اطراف فیزیکدونای انرژی بالا و ذراتی‌ها بوده باشین. قصد من از این نوشته این نیست که به این بپردازم که بحرانی که در موردش صحبت میشه دقیقا چیه و چرا این حرف زده میشه. چون با یک جست‌وجوی ساده می‌تونید ببینید مردم چرا این حرف رو می‌زنن. سوای این، شان کرول خودش ابتدای این قسمت از پادکستش این مسئله رو مطرح می‌کنه و به ابعاد مختلفش می‌پردازه و می‌گه که به چه دلایلی چه کسایی فکر می‌کنن که فیزیک در بحرانه. بعدش هم در چهار ساعت سعی می‌کنه که پاسخ معقولی به این پرسش بده که اصلا بحرانی داریم یا نه؟!

قصد من از این نوشته پرداختن به یک ساعت آخر حرفای کروله که به فضای حرفه‌ای علم می‌پردازه. به این که بالاخره علم توسط آدم‌ها انجام میشه و احساسات افراد و رقابت‌های شغلی در داوری‌هاشون اثر می‌ذاره و هر چیزی که تا به امروز انجام شده ماحصل همه ایده‌هاییه که زمانی معقول و زمانی نامعقول شمرده میشدن. در ادامه بخش‌هایی از حرفای کرول رو می‌ذارم و در مورد نکاتی که به نظرم مهمه که دانشجوهای دکتری و تازه واردها به پژوهش بدونن کمی می‌نویسم.
