Machine learning techniques have been shown to be effective to recognize different phases of matter and produce phase diagrams in the parameter space interested, while they usually require prior labeled data to perform well. Here, we…

Machine-learning techniques are evolving into a subsidiary tool for studying phase transitions in many-body systems. However, most studies are tied to situations involving only one phase transition and one order parameter. Systems that…
