We extend the formalism introduced in the paper hep-th/0209050 to compute correlation functions in the AdS/CFT correspondence. We show how the on-shell action of a scalar field in a compactification of AdS space can be obtained by flowing…

We demonstrate that simple feed-forward neural networks (NNs) can accurately compute correlation functions of conformal field theories (CFTs) on a line. Strikingly, by optimising a NN solely on crossing symmetry and providing only the…
