Discovering Physical Representation Languages
Quick summary
arXiv:2609.23381v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Before a machine can discover a physical law, it must discover what its measurements are: which observations live on cells, which are intensive or extensive, which sectors are dual, and which distinctions are merely gauge. We introduce physical representation-language discovery, the problem of recovering this hidden ontology directly from anonymous controlled experiments. We give an identifiability theory and constructive polynomial-time procedure that recovers a carrier and differential sequence, measurement types and orientation twist, noninv
