In the 23rd episode we review the The 1953 paper Metropolis, Nicholas, et al. "Equation of state calculations by fast computing machines."
The journal of chemical physics 21.6 (1953): 1087-1092 which introduced the Monte Carlo method for simulating molecular systems, particularly focusing on two-dimensional rigid-sphere models.
The study used random sampling to compute equilibrium properties like pressure and density, demonstrating a feasible approach for solving analytically intractable statistical mechanics problems.
By validating the Monte Carlo technique against free volume theories and virial expansions, the study showcased its accuracy and set the stage for MCMC as a powerful tool for exploring complex probability distributions.
These techniques enable applications like generative models, reinforcement learning, and neural network training, supporting the development of robust, data-driven AI systems.
