Description
As part of an interdisciplinary research collaboration, the summer project aimed at addressing the question of life in the multiverse by using a variational autoencoder to relate cosmic star formation to the underlying cosmological parameters. The computational method is presented here. In future research, this will allow for the compression of $n$ cosmological parameters to a low-dimensional representation and the notion of equivalence of universes with seemingly different conditions.
