Criticality and symmetry, studied by the renormalization groups, lie at the heart of modern physics theories of matters and complex systems. However, surveying these properties with massive experimental data is bottlenecked by the intolerable costs of computing renormalization groups on real systems. Here, we develop a time- and memory-efficient framework, termed as the random renormalization group, for renormalizing ultra-large systems (e.g., with millions of units) within minutes. This framework is based on random projections, hashing techniques, and kernel representations, which support the renormalization governed by linear and non-linear correlations. For system structures, it exploits the correlations among local topology in kernel spaces to unfold the connectivity of units, identify intrinsic system scales, and verify the existences of symmetries under scale transformation. For system dynamics, it renormalizes units into correlated clusters to analyze scaling behaviours, validate scaling relations, and investigate potential criticality. Benefiting from hashing-function-based designs, our framework significantly reduces computational complexity compared with classic renormalization groups, realizing a single-step acceleration of two orders of magnitude. Meanwhile, the efficient representation of different kinds of correlations in kernel spaces realized by random projections ensures the capacity of our framework to capture diverse unit relations. As shown by our experiments, the random renormalization group helps identify non-equilibrium phase transitions, criticality, and symmetry in diverse large-scale genetic, neural, material, social, and cosmological systems. |
