Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning are transforming scientific discovery. Wahid Bhimji, who leads NERSC’s Data and AI Services Group, will discuss applying deep learning and generative models at scale to...
Shivam Pandey develops machine learning models that transform simple dark matter simulations into detailed galaxy maps with far greater speed and scale. His work enables...
Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AI/ML), especially deep learning, are becoming increasingly popular across scientific fields, with many believing they will have transformational impacts. But important questions remain...
Artificial intelligence has the potential to bring much-needed acceleration to the development of chemicals and materials for energy and sustainability, just as it has delivered intelligence gains in other fields...
How societal computing links data, infrastructure, and stakeholders to drive innovation and real-world impact in the AI era. Her talk highlights AI-enabled scientific workflows and digital twins from the WIFIRE Program for...
Today’s most sensitive physics experiments require optimization of experimental design, nonlinear feedback controls, and materials design, among other challenges. In this talk, Professor Rana Adhikari will describe recent work...
Join us to learn more about OMol25, a collection of more than 100 million 3D molecular snapshots whose properties have been calculated with density functional theory, and UMA, models trained on half a billion...
Deep learning techniques are increasingly applied to scientific problems where the precision of networks is crucial. Despite being deemed as universal function approximators, neural networks, in practice, struggle to reduce prediction errors below a certain threshold even with large network sizes and extended training iterations...
Understanding how inorganic materials and minerals behave, evolve, and change in various environmental conditions is a core challenge in geophysical sciences, and an area where ab-initio simulation methods have long been helpful. The same processes can also be used to find and discover materials for...
We consider the following pervasive scenario in contemporary scientific discovery: we are faced with an enormous space of candidate designs for some task we must explore. However, our ability to explore this space is severely limited due to the significant inherent costs of experimentation and/or...
Join us for a symposium exploring the transformative potential of AI to advance climate tech, hosted by Bakar Climate Labs and Bakar Institute of Digital Materials for the Planet. Objective: This symposium will highlight the appropriate use of AI to enable new climate technologies, showcasing...
