Mini-conference, organised by the CHAIR theme AI for Scientific Data Analysis.

Overview

Open for registration
Registration (Opens in new tab)

In this event, we want to bring together experts using AI in radioastronomy and researchers in the field in a venue and program that allows for plenty of interactions. The main goal is to gather people in a collaborative space and set up a program that allows plenty of time for discussions and hopefully foster collaborations.

See tentative schedule

The applications of AI to basic research are expanding fast in every domain. There is a gap in knowledge transfer between AI experts and basic research science. In radioastronomy, with the continuous advent of new telescopes and the always even larger datasets, it is increasingly important to bring the community up to speed with the advances in the use of AI.

Accommodation

A block reservation for a limited number of rooms in the period May 20 - May 24 is available at Hotel Panorama at a fixed rate of 1080 SEK per night (breakfast and VAT included). Free cancellation before April 18. For booking, contact toribio@chalmers.se

AI for Scientific Data Analysis

This theme is about utilizing the power of AI as a tool for scientific research. AI can be applied to, and potentially speed up, discovery and utilization in a variety of research disciplines, such as microscopy, physics, biology, chemistry, and astronomy.
