A Siamese neural network, which is a deep learning technique, was applied to investigate phase transitions based on polarising microscopic textures of liquid crystals like: antiferroelectric smectic C* phase and its glass, smectic I phase and its glass, and smectic G and its glass. It is an example of a subtle transition without significant structural changes, where textures above and below the glass transition temperature are similar. The Siamese neural network could distinguish textures of the chosen liquid crystal phases from a glass of that phase.

Commercially available and administered to the patients ethosuximide is a racemic mixture of two enantiomers, each of them exist in different conformations. The presence of the species mentioned are proven by the title experimental methods aided by DFT model calculations. Results of the latter are matched against spectroscopic data by the clustering window analysis.
