Harmonic Potential

Harmonic potentials, functions satisfying Laplace's equation, are being extensively explored for their unique properties of global convergence and freedom from local minima. Current research focuses on applying these potentials in diverse fields, including robotics (for safe and efficient navigation and exploration in unknown environments), machine learning (for enhancing model robustness and explainability), and signal processing (for analyzing time-varying signals like voice). These applications leverage various algorithms, such as boundary element methods, hybrid search techniques, and novel neural network architectures, demonstrating the versatility and growing importance of harmonic functions in solving complex problems across multiple scientific domains.
