Assistant Professor of Physics James Mertens will be presenting on new technologies and developments in machine learning. How has that changed the landscape of physics?

As technology advances, we are entering an era in which we can rapidly explore new methods for discovering and modeling physics. Emerging techniques in machine learning are enabling us to advance our understanding of physical processes across a range of scales, from turbulence in plasmas to cellular processes. In this talk I will discuss several novel techniques, a specific network architecture known as a physics-informed network, and possible implications of this new paradigm.

Join us on Friday, Sept. 9, in Hayes 211/213, from 12 to 1 p.m. for this exciting presentation. Lunch will be available in Hayes 203 from 11:45 to 12:15.
