Convolutional Neural Networks Predict Elliptic Curve Ranks

Researchers have applied one-dimensional convolutional neural networks to predict the analytic rank of elliptic curves over the rational numbers. This method, building on prior work by Kazalicki, Vlah, Bujanović, and Novak, demonstrated high accuracy in its predictions across various conductors. The study also explores the relationship between prediction saliency, murmurations, and Mestre--Nagao sums. AI

IMPACT Applies deep learning techniques to number theory, potentially opening new avenues for mathematical research and discovery.

    Murmurations, Mestre--Nagao sums, and Convolutional Neural Networks for elliptic curves

    arXiv:2603.17681v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We apply one-dimensional convolutional neural networks to the Frobenius traces of elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}$ and evaluate and interpret their predictive capacity. In keeping with similar experiments by Kazalicki--Vl…
