Machine Learning Applications for Particle Accelerators

27 Feb 2018, 07:30 → 2 Mar 2018, 18:00 US/Pacific

Trinity (SLAC Building 53)

Auralee Edelen (Fermilab, CSU), Christopher Mayes (SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory), Daniel Bowring (Fermilab), Daniel Ratner (SLAC)

The goal of this workshop is to help build a world-wide community of researchers interested in applying machine learning techniques to particle accelerators. The workshop will be split into four sequential topics:

1. Tuning, optimization, control
2. Prognostics, alarm handling, anomaly-breakout detection
3. Data analysis
4. Simulations, modeling

This workshop was broadcast via Zoom.
