Siamese Neural Network for Label-Efficient Critical Phenomena Prediction in 3D Percolation Models

arXiv:2507.14159v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Predicting critical phenomena from limited labeled data remains a challenging task in statistical physics. As percolation theory provides a canonical model for phase transitions with well-established critical exponents, it serves as an ideal benchmark for validating new machine learning frameworks. Here, we introduce a label-efficient learning framework based on a Siamese Neural Network (SNN) to identify phase transitions in three-dimensional site and bond percolation models. Using only 22 labeled probability points drawn entirely from
