Virtual Symposium
Topic: Machine Learning for Material Applications
Machine Learning is seeing rapid development and applications to a wide range of scientific research areas. This bi-weekly symposium (virtual) will focus on Machine Learning as applied to materials, including research into the identification and optimization of new and novel materials, prediction of material properties and aging, improvements to characterization analysis methods, and optimization of material synthesis and processes. The organizers feel there is this growing nucleus of groups working on Machine Learning materials questions (SNL, LANL, UNM, GT, NMT, NMSU, UT and others) that we want to bring together for possible future collaborations and discussions. If you would like to present your recent results, we encourage you to consider presenting at MMLS. Every two weeks the one-hour session will be composed of two presentation (25 min. + 5 min live questions). The organizers strongly encourage presentations from students, student interns, postdocs and other researchers that are looking for an avenue to present their ongoing efforts.
