Screenshot of the article header from the European Journal for Philosophy of Science titled “Experiment and the pursuit of ugly models” by Martin King. The header indicates it is a paper in philosophy of the natural sciences. The DOI is https://doi.org/10.1007/s13194-025-00692-y
Physicists have long been enamored with “beautiful” models—but this seems to have changed in high-energy physics. In his new paper, Martin King argues that experimental contexts strongly determine the pursuitworthiness of “ugly models” 👇📃 link.springer.com/article/10.1... #philsci #philphysics #HPS

Figure 3 from the paper with the caption: "Role of machine learning in de novo design of IDRs. (A) Machine-learning models can be trained on diverse data sources, from molecular dynamics simulations to annotations of cellular localization and protein structures from the Protein Data Bank. (B) Often implemented as neural networks using sequence-encoded features as input, these models can initially be trained on a limited region of sequence space as surrogate models. Through active learning, additional simulations are performed during the design campaign to generate new data, and the surrogate model is retrained on the expanded dataset to progressively improve its accuracy. (C) Machine-learning models have been developed to predict biophysical observables, biological annotations, and protein structures. When combined, machine-learning models can be used to identify a set of sequences that strike a trade-off between multiple design objectives, defining a Pareto front."
