Neural Network for Prediction of Curie Temperature of Two-Dimensional Ising Model

The authors describe a method for determining the critical point of a second-order phase transitions using a convolutional neural network based on the Ising model on a square lattice. Data for training were obtained using Metropolis algorithm for different temperatures. The neural network was trained on the data corresponding to the low-temperature phase, that is a ferromagnetic one and high-temperature phase, that is a paramagnetic one, respectively. After training, the neural network analyzed input data from the entire temperature range: from 0.1 to 5.0 (in dimensionless units) and determined (the Curie temperature T_c). The accuracy of the obtained results was estimated relative to the Onsager solution for a flat lattice of Ising spins.
