Machine learning at the mesoscale: a computation-dissipation bottleneck

5 Jul 2023  ·  Alessandro Ingrosso, Emanuele Panizon ·

The cost of information processing in physical systems calls for a trade-off between performance and energetic expenditure. Here we formulate and study a computation-dissipation bottleneck in mesoscopic systems used as input-output devices. Using both real datasets and synthetic tasks, we show how non-equilibrium leads to enhanced performance. Our framework sheds light on a crucial compromise between information compression, input-output computation and dynamic irreversibility induced by non-reciprocal interactions.
