Heat Diffusion

Heat diffusion, the process of heat spreading through a material or system, is being actively explored as a powerful computational framework for solving diverse problems. Current research focuses on applying heat diffusion models and algorithms, often within iterative solver frameworks, to tackle combinatorial optimization, graph coloring, semi-supervised learning, and even image reconstruction in medical imaging. This approach offers advantages in efficiency and interpretability compared to traditional methods, particularly in handling high-dimensional data and complex systems. The resulting advancements have significant implications for various fields, including computer science, materials science, and biomedical imaging.
