IOP Publishing and Fudan University are organising a one-day international workshop, AI-driven discoveries: Machine Learning for the Physical Sciences. The event brings together leading researchers from around the world to explore how machine learning and AI are transforming the physical sciences.
The international workshop provides an opportunity for leading and early-career researchers to share their work and spark ideas. Distinguished experts in the field will deliver plenary talks including:
- Prof Kyle Cranmer, University of Wisconsin-Madison
- Prof Weinan E, Center for Machine Learning Research, Peking University
- Prof Xingao Gong, Fudan University
- Prof Hideki Okawa, Institute of High Energy Physics, CAS
- Prof Dongling Deng, Tsinghua University
The event will be free online and will be streamed via Zoom and KouShare to ensure international accessibility. For those wishing to join in person, attendance is available for a fee.
Topics will include:
- Machine learning for high-energy particle physics
- Quantum machine learning
- Machine learning and big data at large-scale facilities
- Discovery of new materials and molecules
Jian Shen, Head of Institute for Nanoelectronic devices and Quantum computing and Director of State Key Laboratory of Surface Physics at Fudan University, says: “We are honoured to bring together some of the world’s leading machine learning scientists to advance this rapidly evolving research area. Machine learning is revolutionising the way we approach scientific problems, and this event will highlight the pivotal role it plays in pushing the boundaries of research.”
Tim Smith, Head of Portfolio Development at IOP Publishing says: “Co-organising this event with Fudan University presents a unique opportunity for researchers from around the world to learn from leaders in their field and discuss some of the latest developments in how AI and machine learning are helping to advance new discovery across the physical sciences. Aligned with our recently launched Machine Learning series of journals this workshop further exemplifies IOP Publishing’s commitment to fostering global collaboration and driving new innovations through the scientific community we serve.”
Join us for a one-day workshop on April 27, 2025, hosted at Fudan University in Shanghai. Registration opens today (February 11) via the Zoom registration page.
