Uncovering Hidden Leptonic Correlations with Flow Matching and Autoencoders

We perform a global search for values of the Yukawa matrices and Majorana masses in the Type-I seesaw mechanism. Using flow matching, which is a generative artificial intelligence (generative AI) method, we generate a broad set of solutions reproducing the experimentally measured values of the neutrino mass-squared differences and the mixing angles. Then, a machine learning method known as an autoencoder is applied to uncover non-trivial correlations among physical quantities in the lepton sector. Our analysis reveals new non-linear relations involving neutrino masses and CP phases. These findings may contribute to elucidating the origins of the mass hierarchies and mixing patterns among generation structure.

Revisiting One-Zero and Two-Zero Neutrino Mass Textures in Light of Recent Oscillation and Cosmological Data

We revisit one-zero and two-zero textures of the neutrino mass matrix under current experimental and cosmological constraints. We identify the phenomenologically viable texture structures using the latest results on neutrino oscillation parameters, the cosmological bound on the sum of neutrino masses, the kinematic bound on the effective electron-neutrino mass, and limits from neutrinoless double-beta decay. For two-zero textures, several structures are still allowed if only the CMB bound on the neutrino mass sum is imposed. Among them, the $B$-series textures show a characteristic prediction for the Dirac CP phase, with $δ_{\rm CP}$ lying around $π/2$ and $3π/2$, and are within the reach of future neutrinoless double-beta decay searches. When the stronger CMB+BAO constraint is included, however, only the $A$-series textures remain viable. Therefore, we also analyze one-zero textures by using machine learning techniques, particularly flow matching. It turns out that some of the texture structures are already excluded by current data, while the allowed ones give distinct predictions for $\sum_i m_i$, $m_{ν_e}^{\rm eff}$, $\langle m_{ee}\rangle$, and $δ_{\rm CP}$. We further discuss how the one-zero texture structures can arise from non-invertible selection rules.

Predicting the Neutrino Mass Ordering Using Neural Networks

Determining the neutrino mass ordering remains a central open problem in particle physics. While next-generation long-baseline experiments are expected to resolve this question, current data provide limited sensitivity because the spectral differences between normal and inverted ordering are subtle and entangled with parameter degeneracies. We investigate a machine-learning strategy for mass-ordering determination using a feed-forward neural-network classifier trained on synthetic long-baseline datasets generated with three-flavour oscillation probabilities, matter effects, and statistical fluctuations. We evaluate the classifier against standard $χ^2$ and $\log\mathcal{L}$ approaches using common discrimination metrics, including receiver-operating-characteristic curves, to quantify sensitivity and to illustrate how operating points can be selected to prioritise purity or efficiency. We find that the neural network achieves performance comparable to conventional fits for the scenarios studied, providing a flexible, independent cross-check of established analyses. The framework can be extended to incorporate systematic uncertainties and to explore joint inference of oscillation parameters, and it may also serve as a pedagogical tool for introducing machine-learning methods in neutrino physics.
