I am a research assistant in Tiwary Group at the University of Maryland, College Park. My main job includes computational research on modeling thermodynamics, dynamics and their interplay in complex real-world systems relevant to material sciences; I have also started dabbling in Reservoir Computing, a recurrent neural network with an emphasis on the readout layer. I am currently developing mathematical models using Monte Carlo techniques to study molecular interactions between protein folds.
Ising Model
Ising model is a mathematical model in Statistical Mechanics and is usually used to help understand phase transitions. According to Wikipedia,
The model consists of discrete variables that represent magnetic dipole moments of atomic spins that can be in one of two states (+1 or −1). The spins are arranged in a graph, usually a lattice, allowing each spin to interact with its neighbors. The model allows the identification of phase transitions, as a simplified model of reality.I implemented Monte Carlo techniques to simulate both the 1D & 2D Ising Models in Python. Check it out
