Recently developed quantum acoustics, emphasizing the wave nature of lattice vibrations, has enabled the exploration of previously uncharted territories of electron\u2013lattice interaction not accessible with conventional tools such as perturbation theory. In this context, our agenda here is two-fold. First, we showcase the application of machine learning methods to categorize various interaction regimes within the subtle interplay of electrons and the dynamical lattice landscape. Second, we shed light on a nebulous region of electron dynamics identified by the machine learning approach and then attribute it to transient localization, where strong lattice vibrations result in a momentary Anderson prison for electronic wavepackets, which are later released by the evolution of the lattice. Overall, our research illuminates the spectrum of dynamics within the Fr\u00f6hlich model, such as transient localization, which has been suggested as a pivotal factor contributing to the mysteries surrounding strange metals. Furthermore, this paves the way for utilizing time-dependent perspectives in machine learning techniques for designing materials with tailored electron\u2013lattice properties.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/e26070552","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,6,28]],"date-time":"2024-06-28T06:51:53Z","timestamp":1719557513000},"page":"552","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Rise and Fall of Anderson Localization by Lattice Vibrations: A Time-Dependent Machine Learning Approach"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"26","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0003-1720-4368","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yoel","family":"Zimmermann","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Chemistry and Applied Biosciences, ETH Zurich, 8093 Zurich, Switzerland"},{"name":"Department of Physics, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA 02138, USA"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7906-4407","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Joonas","family":"Keski-Rahkonen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physics, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA 02138, USA"},{"name":"Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA 02138, USA"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0573-8907","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Anton M.","family":"Graf","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA 02138, USA"},{"name":"Harvard John A.
