🌊 What I think and What I value

While traveling through the daily path of life, have you ever been curious about everything around you? Yes, I have. The suspense and unknown that come with learning more about our world always excite me, as I strive to unlock secrets that I know very little about.

Tracing the origins of Schrödinger equation

This blog aims to trace historical and scientific origins of Schrödinger equation, focusing on its development from hydrogen atom model. Initially, attempts were made to derive a relativistic equation for the hydrogen atom, but eventually, a nonrelativistic approach was adopted instead. By combining principles from Hamiltonian mechanics, Erwin Schrödinger successfully formulated the final Schrödinger equation. Through this exploration, we could gain a deeper understanding of the scientific advancements and conceptual breakthroughs that led to the creation of the Schrödinger equation, shedding light on its profound impact on the field of quantum mechanics....

Viewing direct policy optimization from a physical perspective

Introduction Direct Preference Optimization (DPO) is a method used to fine-tune large language models by directly optimizing their parameters based on human feedback. DPO effectively addresses the challenges associated with supervised fine-tuning during the advanced stages of reinforcement learning. The concept behind DPO is to integrate preference data directly into the model’s training process, adjusting the model’s parameters to increase the likelihood of generating outputs similar to those preferred by humans....

The challenges of scientific truth and belief systems

Introduction Mathematics and science are deeply interconnected, with math providing the founfation for scientific theories. However, there exists an huge gap within mathematics—a gap that ensures we will never touch complete certainty. Certain true statements remain unprovable, potentially challenging our belief in scientific discoveries. Historical context Russell’s paradox and formalism In 1874, Georg Cantor introduced the concept of sets, and a branch of mathematics named set theory, which studies well-defined collections of things....
